MIAMI: Venezuelan security officials who detained an American journalist for more than 12 hours pushed him to voice support for socialist President Nicolas Maduro, whose government faces international condemnation, the journalist said on Thursday .
"They continually kept asking if I had contacts in the military, if I had contacts in the local police force or in the national police force."
