Univision reporter Jorge Ramos described in detail his brief detainment at Venezuela’s Presidential Palace on Monday, uploading a video to Facebook telling followers exactly how it went down.
“They took me into a security room, with producer Maria Guzman and they asked for our cellphones. I didn’t want to give them my cellphone. So they turned off the light of the room and a group of agents came in,” Ramos said. “They took forcefully my backpack, my cellphone, they did the same thing with Maria’s, and they forced us to give them our pass codes for the cellphones. We didn’t know what was going to happen to us.”
