Acting President of Venezuela Delcy Rodríguez, in a report on the first 100 days of the "Program of Democratic Coexistence and Peace," said she had submitted an official request to the Supreme Court to reorganize the judicial system and called for a large-scale national consultation to develop a new criminal code. Rodríguez noted that the Amnesty Law, which has already helped more than 9,000 people, was the right tool for "reunification and tolerance," but also reported discovered violations in its application, including instances of corruption among judges who "dare to take money for amnesty." The acting president emphasized that she demanded immediate measures against such judges, saying: "Some crimes are excluded from amnesty, and we will address them within the framework of the peace program." The request to "reformat" the judiciary and the national consultation are intended to create a new criminal justice system that will put an end to abuses.
