Venezuela announces $100,000 reward for capture of opposition candidate
Briefly

Venezuelan authorities have issued a $100,000 reward for information that leads to the capture of Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia, an exiled opposition candidate claiming he won the last election against President Maduro.
After fleeing to Spain amid charges of conspiracy from the Venezuelan government, Gonzalez vowed to return to Venezuela and be sworn in as president on January 10, promising to combat the regime led by Maduro.
The opposition has denounced Maduro's victory as fraudulent, claiming it has polling data indicating Gonzalez won decisively, yet Maduro's regime refuses to release the official vote results.
Street protests following the disputed election resulted in violence, with over 28 fatalities, 200 injuries, and 2,400 arrests, highlighting the unrest and dissent against the Maduro government.
