Venezuela's opposition leader Juan Guaido summoned by the country's state prosecutors for alleged 'attempted coup'

In this file photo taken on March 10, 2020 Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido gestures during a rally at Las Mercedes district, in eastern Caracas. Venezuela prosecutor's office subpoenaed Guaido for"attempted coup," authorities announced on March 31, 2020.

In a statement broadcast on state TV, Saab said Guaido had been summoned to appear before prosecutors next Thursday following an investigation last week into the seizure of a weapons cache in neighboring Colombia that he said was to be smuggled into Venezuela.The opposition leader is recognized as interim president by more than 50 countries, including the United States, that refuse to recognize socialist President Nicolas Maduro after his disputed 2018 re-election.

Alcala claimed ownership of the weapons discovered by police in Puerto Viejo in Colombia's Magdalena department on March 23. He said in social media messages the intention was to deliver them to Venezuela to "begin the liberation." Guaido has been repeatedly targeted by the government in a number of legal cases but never arrested, amid warnings by the United States that it would be Maduro's "last mistake."
