By Zoila Palma: Venezuela has launched an investigation into El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele over alleged mistreatment of Venezuelan migrants held in a high-security prison.
Attorney General Tarek William Saab said the investigation follows reports from migrants who claimed abuse while detained at El Salvador’s CECOT prison after being deported from the U.S.
The investigation also targets El Salvador’s Justice Minister Gustavo Villatoro and prison chief Osiris Luna, AP reports.
Over 250 migrants were held since March and released Friday in a prisoner swap involving 10 Americans jailed in Venezuela.
Bukele’s office has not commented.
