    Prisoners end hunger strike in Venezuela after agreement with government

    "Between Thursday, June 13, and Friday, June 14, the inmates gradually desisted from the hunger strike, after an agreement with the ministry of penitentiary services," the Venezuelan Prisons Observatory said, saying cases of some detainees had begun to be transferred to different courts in the country. President Nicolas Maduro earlier replaced the country's head of the penitentiary affairs, Celsa Bautista, and appointed legislator Julio Zerpa, in the middle of the strike. NGOs have criticized prisons in Venezuela for overcrowding, poor health conditions and food scarcity, in addition to procedural delays, among other issues.
