A citizen of Uzbekistan has been fined 1.23 million soms (about 100 dollars) for calling the Police to complain about the policy of the President of the United States, Donald Trump, regarding Venezuela, the RIA Novosti agency reported today. According to the media, which had access to the judicial ruling, the man told the agents that he wanted to sue Trump for the capture of the Venezuelan leader, Nicolás Maduro. Later, the Uzbek man admitted his guilt and assured that he was not aware of the consequences of his actions because he was drunk.

In the Police, they explained that although the call was classified as false, the offender had to be punished for making it. Meanwhile, Elena Urlaeva, head of the Human Rights Defense Alliance of Uzbekistan, called on Trump to repeat the Venezuelan operation in her country and capture its leader, Shavkat Mirziyoyev, whom she accuses of several crimes. “It’s a dead end that can only be resolved by stripping Mirziyoyev of power and sending him to court, whether in the United States or elsewhere,” he said. Mirziyoyev was received by Trump at the White House along with other Central Asian leaders last December.
