Maduro Regime Issues Arrest Warrant Against Opposition Candidate Edmundo Gonzalez
The Venezuelan Public Prosecutor's Office, loyal to dictator NicolĂĄs Maduro, issues an arrest warrant for opposition leader Edmundo GonzĂĄlez.
The Venezuelan Public Prosecutorâs Office â loyal to socialist dictator NicolĂĄs Maduro â issued an arrest warrant on Monday for opposition leader Edmundo GonzĂĄlez, accusing him of alleged conspiracy and other crimes as Maduro continues its brutal crackdown on dissidents following the July 28 sham presidential election, which the dictator fraudulently insists he âwon.â
GonzĂĄlez, a lesser-known 75-year-old former diplomat, was the only opposition candidate that the Maduro regime allowed to be on the July 28 sham electionâs ballot, which featured the dictator â who appeared a total of 13 times â GonzĂĄlez, and a group of handpicked âoppositionâ rivals.
On Monday, the Venezuelan Public Prosecutorâs Office requested a court with jurisdiction over âterrorismâ issue an arrest warrant against GonzĂĄlez for alleged crimes related to the elections, including âdisobedience,â âconspiracy,â âusurpation of functions,â and âsabotage.
Maduroâs claimed victory was upheld in late August by the Venezuelan Supreme Justice Tribunal â another entity stacked with Maduro loyalists â after allegedly âreviewingâ the voter data that the Venezuelan electoral authorities refuse to publicly show.

The governments of Argentina, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Paraguay, Peru, the Dominican Republic, and Uruguay released a joint statement on Monday rejecting the arrest warrant issued against GonzĂĄlez, denouncing it and the alleged crimes cited by the document as political persecution and an attempt to disregard Venezuelaâs popular will.
âIn a country where there is no separation of powers or minimum judicial guarantees and where arbitrary detentions abound, we condemn these dictatorial practices and our efforts will be firm and continuous to demand that the Venezuelan authorities guarantee the life, integrity and freedom of Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia,â the statement reads
~Snip~
The Maduro regimeâs brutal crackdown of the nationwide protests against his fraudulent âvictoryâ in the July 28 sham election have left over 25 deaths, roughly 200 injured, and the arbitrary arrest of 2,400 individuals â including 129 minors, of which 86 were reportedly released on Sunday.
Commentary:
We have become just like these Marxist Socialists, prosecuting our political foes.
Free Speech is fruit, dying on the vine. Amazing how a good portion of Americans are okay with that.
Look at the world around you, folks. Is this what you want? Everyone and everything you do not agree with jailed and eradicated?
This action by Maduro is no different that what the Biden/Harris administration has and will do in the coming election of November 5th.
Aren't the Venezuelan's supposed to jail their opponents BEFORE the elections! Preferably with multiple bogus charges and in multiple courts similar Putin's actions. Not to worry though, Garland will fly Colangelo down there to square things awayâŚ
