PRAGUE, Jan 16 (Reuters) – A Czech national imprisoned in Venezuela since 2024 has been released along with other foreign nationals, Czech Foreign Minister Petr Macinka said on Friday.

The Czech citizen was detained over claims he was planning to participate in a plot to kill then President Nicolas Maduro and overthrow the government, according to Czech media.
