Venezuela Takes Legal Action on Media
Caracas - Venezuelan lawyers announced Tuesday that
they will begin legal action against communication
media calling for the assassination and murder of
deputies, which is being termed, "media terrorism."
The coordinator of the Front of Socialist Lawyers of
the state of Zulia, Victor Chourio, said that this
is with regard to the private channels Globovisión
and RCTV and the regional newspaper La Verdad.
"Zulia deputies should be hung in the middle of an
avenue," stated a headline of the newspaper La
Verdad recently. Globovisión, has published calls
made by opponents, calling for assassinations.
The Constitution guarantees the right to health, and
they are attacking this right, and as a consequence
they are making a mistake, a criminal act, for what
we will exercise the pertinent actions," Chourio
said according to a report of Radio Nacional of
Venezuela.
In addition to legal action, on June 12 the Front of
Socialist Lawyers will carry out a forum on media
terrorism and strategies to combat it. |
