VENEZUELA- 6 Suspects Arrested For Murder of Student Leader by Mike Silvestri

According to the Venezuelan Attorney General 6 arrest were made for the murder of an Anti-Chavez student leader. Three of the Suspects work for the Venezuelan intelligence division and one is an ex-member of the CICPC (Criminal, Scientific, and Penal Investigations Corp)
Recently investigators found evidence linking Soto's murder to his illegal trafficking of government-subsidizing bus tickets.

This shows real progess, at least according to the Attorney General. From what we have learned about the Chavez regime in Venezuela it's difficult to accept information released to the public. After reading this article I'm curious about the Venezuelan government and if there is a system of checks in balances that allows the Attorney General to speak freely without orders from Chavez
Pending whether Chavez has direct control over what the Attorney General says it's possible the investigation has begun to find the truth. Or it could also just be another part of the smoke and mirrors game Chavez plays with the people.
