Venezuela’s ex-interior minister arrested

Caracas, (MILLAT ONLINE):Former Venezuelan interior minister Miguel Rodriguez Torres was arrested on Tuesday for allegedly plotting to divide the armed forces, the government said.
“He was wanted… for involvement in actions against peace. He participated in conspiracies and plots in the pursuit of the evil intention of attacking the monolithic unity of our armed forces,” a statement said.
His arrest comes ahead of a controversial May 20 presidential election which the crisis-hit country’s main opposition is boycotting.
