The NGO Justice, Meeting and forgive
The NGO Justice, Meeting and forgiveness criticized the recent releases in the country by ensuring that they do not represent an advance towards justice. He stressed that on the contrary what is being done is to issue substitute measures of freedom, for some people political prey, while others.
The information was published in their X account where they indicated that they see with concern the continuity of a systematic pattern of political persecution in Venezuela. “Recent release of people arrested for political reasons, far from meaning an advance towards justice, show a dangerous dynamic in which while some people are released under restrictive conditions, new arbitrary detentions are executed against activists, journalists, human rights defenders and critical citizens,” he said.
In this regard, they pointed out that these conditional liberties keep their beneficiaries subject to periodic presentations in court, prohibition of departure from the country and to participate in public activities, which limits the freedom of those who receive them, to whom he said that with this type of measures.

«They keep them in a constant state of surveillance and uncertainty. They are partial, limited freedoms, that perpetuate fear and silencing voices, ”they said in the brief.
They reiterated their complaint about the lack of an official list of release, a complaint that also made the non -governmental organization Criminal Forum at the beginning of this week. «It is only known by the head of the internal relations, justice and peace, Diosdado Cabello, which would produce 80 measures. He said it on Friday, July 18, in the middle of the reception of 252 Venezuelan migrants unjustly imprisoned in El Salvador, after a three -band exchange between Caracas, Washington and San Salvador, which included the release of 10 American prisoners in Venezuela ».
In an address with state media, Cabello said there would be 80 releases, although he showed that they could happen more and thanked the role of the former president of the Spanish government, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, by mediating in that process. He even denied that the exchange of Americans for migrants included a negotiation with the United States to free political prisoners in the country, although Chavismo, the Prosecutor’s Office and the justice system do not consider that in the country there are people detained for political reasons.
