Between 23-24 August 2025, 13 politically motivated arbitrary detainees were released from detention in Caracas, Venezuela. All 13 victims had been held in El Helicoide, a detention center run by the Bolivarian National Intelligence Service (SEBIN, in Spanish) and included Pedro Guanipa, Rafael Ramírez, and Américo de Grazia, amongst others. Meanwhile, 816 individuals remain arbitrarily detained for political reasons, according to NGO Foro Penal, and new detentions continue to be routinely carried out. We call on Nicolás Maduro to release all those arbitrarily detained and to protect their lives, physical integrity, and fair trial guarantees while in detention.
