Families push for proof of life as Venezuela's political-prisoner releases lag
TL;DR Summary
Venezuela’s rollout of political-prisoner releases remains slow, with only about 56 of more than 800 detainees freed as of Monday, far short of government claims and prompting families to demand proof of life and full, unconditional releases; rights groups say many remain detained or disappeared, the UN calls the numbers inadequate, and a few high-profile prisoners have been released amid US pressure.
