A group of 13 political prisoners, including former deputy Américo de Grazia and opposition leader Pedro Guanipa, was released after being detained in the context of the crisis following the presidential elections in July 2024.
The information was confirmed this Sunday by Henrique Capriles and Tomás Guanipa.
"Today, another step forward for those behind bars. Today, several families get to embrace their loved ones again. We know there are many left, and we do not forget them; we continue to fight for all," Capriles wrote on his X account.
On his social media, Capriles, who was elected as a deputy to the National Assembly (AN, Parliament) last May, indicated that they are "free: Víctor Jurado, Simón Vargas, Arelis Ojeda Escalante, Mayra Castro, Diana Berrío, Margarita Assenzo, Gorka Carnevalli, Américo de Grazia".
In addition, he explained that they received "house arrest: Nabil Maalouf, Valentín Gutiérrez Pineda, Rafael Ramírez, Pedro Guanipa, David Barroso," he added.
