Venezuelan prosecutor files appeal to cancel Maduro’s Constituent Assembly

June 9, 2017 by Staff News Writer

Venezuelan Attorney General Luisa Ortega said on Thursday that she has filed a motion of nullity against the Constituent Assembly convened by President Nicolás Maduro, on the grounds of violation of democracy and popular sovereignty.

I am trying to defend the people’s sovereignty, to defend the Constitution, to defend participatory democracy, to defend Venezuelans, because the country is at stake,”

Ortega told reporters in the outskirts of the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ).
