Nicolás Maduro claimed victory in the presidential race in Venezuela once again, but voting tally receipts collected and published online by his opposition reveal a very different outcome. In response, Maduro's regime has unleashed a brutal crackdown on dissent throughout the country.
As part of "Operación Tun Tun" (Operation Knock Knock), the regime is showcasing its crusade against dissent on social media and national television. Videos typically begin with footage of a protester, followed by music from A Nightmare on Elm Street and scenes of heavily armed officers detaining the individual. Reports indicate that detainees have been subjected to torture, cruel treatment, and drugs to extract false confessions.
