Raúl Baduel
Raúl Baduel was a former Venezuelan Minister of Defense, known for his role in the 2002 coup attempt against then-President Hugo Chávez. He later became a critic of the Chávez and Maduro administrations, leading to his imprisonment in 2009 on corruption charges, which many viewed as politically motivated. Baduel spent over a decade in prison, during which he maintained his stance against the government. He passed away in 2021 while still incarcerated, raising concerns about the treatment of political prisoners in Venezuela, particularly regarding his family’s claims of cruel and inhumane treatment faced by inmates.
