So, this Government which is so “democratic” and respectful of “Human Righst” raids the offices of opposition group Comando de la Resistancia and Alianza al Bravo Pueblo, ostensibly looking for weapons, which were not found. Meanwhile pro-Chavez supporters like Lina Ron and the Tupamaros go around Caracas armed to the teeth and even daring to stop civilians to check them.
Meanwhile the Prosecutor holds a press conference to say that student leader Nixon Moreno can not receive political asylum because he is not being charged with a political crime, but a common crime. Sure, his “common” crime is that he was truly democratically elected as student leader of the University of Los Andes and led protests when the National Guard illegally entered that university. This led the same Prosecutor’s office to issue a search warrant only for him. Yeap, this is not political…Curious how it is always opposition leaders, sounds like Mugabe to me.
Another one in the long list of human rights violations of Hugo Chavez the autocrat…What else is new, but it is on the records…
