In Venezuela, repression from the National Government against dissidents has increased notably in 2017.
According to Foro Penal, there are 144 Political Prisoners.
They have been subjected to trials without evidence or witnesses.
Prison conditions violate their human rights and compromise their health.
There are reports of torture and mistreatment against political prisoners and their families.
From the protests that began April 4, 2017, more than 1500 demonstrators have been arrested.
800 demonstrators still detained arbitrarily.
