Venezuela: 30-year sentences in Tancol 'false positives' case denounced by relatives

A Venezuelan court sentenced four individuals to 30 years in prison in a case relatives label as 'false positives'—extrajudicial killings presented as combat deaths. The relatives claim the justice system continues to persecute the poor, alleging the convictions are politically motivated. This marks a notable judicial development in Venezuela's ongoing human rights accountability gap.
