IPYS Venezuela warns that 15 journalists remain imprisoned in the country, most of them detained during and after the 2024 presidential elections and in the first months of 2025. The organization denounces a pattern of arbitrary arrests, enforced disappearances, and judicial processes that violate due process, reflecting the deepening repression against independent media. Free Media Foundation calls for their immediate release and the restoration of press freedom in Venezuela.<\/p>\n

The Venezuelan chapter of the Press and Society Institute (IPYSve) has reported that 15 journalists remain behind bars<\/strong> in the country. Nine of these arrests occurred in 2025, five in 2024, and one dates back to 2022. The organization warns that arbitrary detentions have become a systematic tool of repression, especially during and after the presidential elections of July 28, 2024.<\/p>\n
