After the publication of the <\/span>report<\/span><\/a> of the United Nations Independent Mission on Venezuela that accused the government of Nicol\u00e1s Maduro of committing crimes against humanity, Attorney General Tarek William Saab said that “it is time for a restructuring of the Special Action Forces (FAES) and all the police forces”.<\/span><\/p>

The Special Action Forces were created in 2016 as “elite corps”, even though there are no documents to certify this and no procedural manuals have been found. It is <\/span>“the most lethal police institution in Venezuela”<\/b>, according to the United Nations mission. The team headed by Michelle Bachelet determined that the FAES are responsible for 64.5% of the deaths in 2019.<\/span><\/p>

Although the statement of Attorney General Tarek William Saab would seem to suggest an admission of guilt, he appears <\/span>far from acknowledging the gravity of the allegations made against the FAES<\/b>. Although there are no consistent official figures on police related deaths, the <\/span>annual report<\/span><\/a> by Observatorio Venezolano de Violencia documented, only in 2019, 5,286 deaths caused by “resistance to authority”. <\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>
