Cairo News Channel reported in urgent news that the Venezuelan Foreign Minister called on the United Nations to immediately release Maduro.
Media and human rights reports reported that more than 200 Venezuelan political prisoners began a hunger strike to protest exceptions to the amnesty law recently issued by acting President Dels Rodriguez.
More than 200 prisoners in Venezuela announced a hunger strike to demand their release under a new general amnesty law approved by the transitional authorities. This law excluded a large number of them on the grounds that their cases were linked to charges of “terrorism” or crimes of a military nature.
The strike began on Friday night in the “Rodeo 1” prison located on the outskirts of the capital, Caracas, where prisoners’ families say that about 214 Venezuelan and foreign detainees are participating in the movement, while not all inmates are joining it.
