Yes, there are groups with long guns, and short guns, and with motorcycles. Maybe before, we had more. Now they are a minimum, but they are still there. Chávez gave guns to this group of people and started doing a politics of aggression.
We have a terrorist state. They [Witness speaks in Spanish].
They allow violence. It's the current state. They put guns in a lot of people's hands and in Venezuela, every 19 minutes a Venezuelan person dies of violence, kidnapping, or being shot for taking a bag of food or taking a pair of shoes.

We have the videos. We have the pictures and we have everything that we have testified that is true.
