Opposition leader Juan Guaidó urged Venezuelans to take to the streets Monday as he returned home after a 10-day absence, trying to reignite a U.S.-backed campaign to push out authoritarian President Nicolás Maduro.
Maduro has said that Guaidó would"face justice" if he returned, noting that he had already defied a court order barring him from leaving the South American country.
As demonstrators began to gather in downtown Caracas on Monday, many expressed fear that Guaidó would be arrested and that the country's perilous situation would deteriorate further. "If they capture him, we have to be even more united to achieve his liberation," he said."But I hope that does not happen."
Any move by Maduro and his government to detain him would be"one of the last mistakes they make," he added.
