VOICED : Opositor venezolano cumple ano de carcel

Leopoldo López, a Venezuelan political leader, surrendered to authorities nearly a year ago, accused of inciting violence during the 2014 protests that resulted in 43 deaths. Since his arrest, he has communicated only through written statements. The UN called for his release, but the request was ignored, and his trial continues. López, a former mayor and economist, was previously barred from public office due to allegations of resource misappropriation. He announced a presidential bid in 2011 and now faces a potential 10-year prison sentence.
