Emergency Justice: Search and seizure of conspirators

President Maduro has announced a new “Special Plan of Emergency Justice” for the “search and capture conspirators.” The announcement was made during a televised session of the Council for the Defense of the Nation (Codena), which was declared in “permanent sessions” by the government in order to “face the imperial threat” against the country.

The plan, according to Maduro, is the brain child of Maikel Moreno, President of Venezuela’s highest court, the Tribunal Supremo de Justicia (TSJ), and will involve several state security agencies, including “military justice, police institutions, the Interior Minister,” and the recently appointed by the TSJ, pro-government vice-attorney general, Katherine Harrinton.
