Venezuela opposition leader regains freedom
The deputy of Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaidó has been released from prison.
Edgar Zambrano was detained in May on treason charges for supporting a failed uprising on the 30th of April organised by Mr Guaidó.
Mr Guaidó is recognised as an interim president by more than 50 nations.
The move comes a day after president Nicolás Maduro reached a deal with small opposition parties to try to solve the country’s political deadlock.
Venezuela’s prosecutor general Tarek William Saab said the government petitioned the supreme court to release Mr Zambrano on yesterday following partial agreements reached by the Venezuelan government and sectors of the national opposition.
