The National Assembly (AN) reactivated the approach in preventive centers for prisoners of liberty to expedite due process and ensure the release of people who meet the requirements to receive their benefits, said the first vice-president of Parliament, Pedro Infante.

In this regard, he indicated that the measure was coordinated during a meeting with the different actors of the criminal justice system, including the Public Ministry, the Ministry of People's Power for Internal Relations, Justice and Peace, the Bolivarian National Police (PNB), the Bolivarian National Guard (GNB) and the Scientific, Criminal and Criminal Investigations Corps (CICPC), as well as representatives of the Judiciary and deputies of the AN.

He said that the initiative responds to a direct instruction from the President of the Parliament, Jorge Rodríguez, and the President of the Republic, Delcy Rodríguez, with the purpose of accompanying the process of transformation of the criminal justice system that is being carried out in the year 2026. “On the one hand, there is the national consultation for the reform of the criminal justice system; on the other hand, we are making progress in the nominations and renewal of the magistrates of the Supreme Court of Justice,” said Infante.

The first vice president explained that they will review the different cases. “We will be reviewing the different cases to achieve the corresponding releases adjusted to full law and we can contribute to continuing to make progress in making justice fairer,” he concluded.
