Venezuela opposition leader Freddy Superlano has been detained, party says
SUMMARY
Freddy Superlano, the national coordinator of Venezuela's opposition Voluntad Popular party, has been 'detained', the party announced on X. "We must responsibly denounce that a few minutes ago our National Political Coordinator Freddy Superlano was kidnapped," the statement read. This development comes amidst a disputed election, with both President Nicolás Maduro and opposition candidate Edmundo González declaring victory. The party's statement further warned, "We alert the international community about a repressive escalation of the dictatorship of Nicolás Maduro against the activists of the democratic cause, who peacefully demand the publication of the electoral results that give our elected president Edmundo González as the OVERWHELMING winner." Superlano's arrest heightens tensions in an already volatile political climate.
