Around 2,000 supporters of ousted Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro demonstrated Sunday (January 4) in Caracas to demand that he and his wife, who were nabbed by U.S. forces and taken to a New York jail, be released.
A group of pro-Maduro paramilitaries and bikers accompanied the demonstrators, who waved red, blue and yellow Venezuelan flags.
“Free our President,” read a placard held by a man with a red flannel shirt which bore the image of Mr. Maduro’s predecessor and mentor, late socialist firebrand Hugo Chavez.
