Student killed in Venezuela protests: prosecutors

CARACAS, (MILLAT ONLINE/APP/AFP) – A 19-year-old student
died Tuesday after he was shot during clashes between Venezuelan
police and demonstrators, prosecutors said, the second death
in a week at violent protests against President Nicolas Maduro.
Daniel Queliz was shot in the neck as police broke up
protesters who want to remove Maduro from office over a
spiraling economic and political crisis.
He died early Tuesday in the northern city of Valencia,
the state prosecution service said.
It said 40 people will be charged for “acts of violence”
in Monday’s unrest.
