Venezuela's Prisons Remain a Dark Mirror for Maduro's Regime The release of Argentine Nahuel Gallo from Venezuela's Rodeo I prison on March 1 is a stark reminder that despite interim President Delcy Rodríguez's promises of democratic reforms, the repressive system in Venezuela remains intact.
Gallo spent 448 days behind bars, subjected to beatings, limited medical care, and constant psychological pressure.
Gallo's detention serves as a painful illustration of the Maduro regime's tactics: using arbitrary detention as a tool of political repression.
