Woman shot dead in Venezuela voting queue

(UDHAYAM, COLOMBO) – A nurse aged 61 has been shot dead while waiting to vote in an unofficial, opposition-organised referendum in Venezuela’s capital, Caracas.

Men on motorbikes fired at a queue, killing her and wounding three others.

The opposition blamed a “paramilitary” gang. Video from the scene showed people rushing away from the gunshots. Many fled to a church.

Venezuela is in crisis, and more than 100 people have died in political clashes since April.
