According to the report, the Chavista security forces launched an ‘unprecedented campaign of mass and indiscriminate detentions’ following the July 28 vote

Elvis Amoroso, the Venezuelan official who declared strongman Nicolás Maduro the winner of July’s controversial presidential election, has not been seen in public in 10 weeks, triggering rumors on social media ranging from his arrest in Argentina and extradition to the U.

Venezuela’s Interior Minister has alleged that the detained individuals were part of a unit tasked with assassinating Maduro.

In an alleged assassination bid, Venezuelan authorities have detained at least four US citizens, along with two Spaniards and a Czech national.

The rights group indicated that passports have been confiscated at the country’s main airport as individuals attempted to board flights.
