VOICED : Venezuela: arranca juicio contra Leopoldo Lopez

The trial of Venezuelan opposition leader Leopoldo López begins, with charges of inciting violence during protests that resulted in 43 deaths. López, held in a military prison, was brought to Caracas under heavy security. Over 200 supporters gathered outside the court. His lawyers argue the trial is unfair. López surrendered to authorities amid protests he organized, which led to three deaths. Subsequent protests addressed issues like insecurity, inflation, and scarcity. The trial is expected to last two to three months, with a potential 10-year sentence if convicted.
