On Saturday, relatives of political prisoners in Venezuela reiterated their demands for the complete and immediate release of all political detainees, irrespective of a new amnesty law proposed by Delcy Rodríguez's government. Jorge Rodríguez, President of the National Assembly, indicated that the proposal may be approved next week. However, activists like Andreína Baduel, daughter of the late prisoner Raúl Baduel, criticized the law as being created without consulting victims, emphasizing that they will continue to fight for justice and liberation of imprisoned individuals.

Andreína Baduel, who works with the NGO Committee for the Freedom of Political Prisoners, highlighted the ongoing ‘State terrorism’ faced by many prisoners and their families in Venezuela. She stressed the importance of recognizing the continuous and painful reality that these victims suffer daily within the prison system. The call for action is centered around the need for societal acknowledgment of their plight and initiating reparations for all victims of the regime's abuses.

The situation in Venezuela reflects broader issues of human rights and political oppression, posing significant challenges not only for the victims and their families but also impacting the political landscape of the country. As discussions around amnesty proceed, the families of political prisoners remain vigilant, underscoring that legal developments must prioritize the voices and rights of those most affected by state actions.
