CARACAS (Reuters) – Hinirang ni Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro noong Martes ang isang military general na inakusahan ng United States na sangkot sa mga krimen kaugnay sa droga bilang bagong interior minister.
Si Nestor Reverol, 51, ay dating pinuno ng anti-narcotics agency at National Guard troop ng Venezuela.
“I offer all my personal support and as head of state to him and his family after he has been attacked by the U.S. empire,” sabi ni Maduro nang ihayag ang balasahan ng gabinete.
