FORMER Venezuela interior minister Miguel Rodriguez Torres has been captured and “handed over to the justice system,” the communications ministry in Caracas has announced.
Security forces allege that the former leading intelligence official was connected to armed attacks on public institutions last year.
He was apprehended on Tuesday as part of an operation to dismantle “aggressive and violent plans” against the government.
Concessions to Washington by the post-Maduro leadership in Caracas are designed to preserve the core of the Bolivarian Revolution not betray it, argue Roger D Harris, Francisco Dominguez and Mara Paez Victor. How the solidarity movement responds is critical
International solidarity can ensure that Trump and his machine cannot prevail without a level of political and economic cost that he will not want to pay, argues CLAUDIA WEBBE
