National Assembly President accused of corruption

March 7, 2003

And then there is the request by the workers of the Venezuelan National Assembly for the Supreme Court to allow charging former President of the Assembly William Lara with corruption. Lara, a member of Chavez’ MVR party was President of the Assembly until December. He is accused of using funds earmarked for salaries and violating workers rights by refusing to discuss the union contract. I agree with Chavez, such a pretty revolution!
