The ICJ and other Human Rights groups today expressed their concern at the ongoing prosecution of Judge Maria Lourdes Afiuni.
The organizations called on the Venezuelan authorities to ensure that the trial against the Venezuelan tenured criminal judge comply with all fair trial guarantees provided under international law and Venezuelan Constitution, and hearings be held in public, with access provided to national and international observers.
