The US Navy announced on Wednesday, September 4, that it is investigating
the arrest of a marine
while on a personal trip to Venezuela, according to information from the EFE Agency citing Pentagon sources.
According to the Navy, “We are aware of reports that a U.S. Navy Marine was detained on or about August 30, 2024 by Venezuelan law enforcement authorities while on a personal trip to Venezuela,” reads the report to which EFE had access.
The Navy stated it is “working closely with the State Department” on the case.
Attorney José Vicente Haro told reporters that his appeal was not accepted, in which he outlined “all the constitutional and legal reasons” for why González did not appear at the summons.
Haro explained that crimes “should not” be pre-qualified in a summons, which is not proper for an action by the Public Prosecutor’s Office, but rather for a court when the investigation is already advanced.
The prosecutor’s office has accused the opponent of “usurpation of functions”, “forgery of public documents”, “instigation to disobedience of laws”, “conspiracy”, “sabotage to damage systems and association (to commit a crime)”, according to the citations published on social media.
