The prosecutor’s office in Venezuela said Monday it would investigate claims of “torture” committed against migrants the US had sent to a notorious prison in El Salvador, from where they were freed last week.
“We have decided to open a formal investigation,” Attorney General Tarek William Saab told reporters, saying he is calling on “the International Criminal Court, the UN Human Rights Council, and relevant organizations both in America and the world, to do the same, to act accordingly.”
