Inter-American Court to hold first public hearings on April 11, 2002 Caracas victims

The Inter-American Court of Human Rights will begin public hearings on October 14 regarding victims of the April 11, 2002 anti-government protests in Caracas, with NGO Foro Penal directors participating. This marks a judicial step in a long-standing human rights case, though the specific scope and number of victims remain unclear. The hearings could set precedents for state accountability in Venezuela.
