Caracas, Venezuela -- One of the biggest concerns for Venezuela's opposition following the capture of Nicolás Maduro by US special forces in January was the fate of thousands of political prisoners who had been detained since Maduro and his predecessor, Hugo Chávez, took power.
In February, interim President Delcy Rodríguez announced a so-called amnesty law designed to free political prisoners who were detained as far back as 1999.
