Juan Pablo Guanipa Placed Under House Arrest After New Amnesty Law

Juan Pablo Guanipa was placed under house arrest shortly after his release under a new amnesty law signed by Delcy Rodríguez in Caracas.The legislation followed the capture of Nicolás Maduro by USA forces in January and covers twenty-seven years of political unrest ending in 2026.While the law mandates the closure of the El Helicoide detention center, it excludes individuals accused of crimes against humanity or promoting military action.Juan Pablo Guanipa criticized the measure as a form of political blackmail and called for the immediate release of hundreds of remaining political prisoners.
