A/HRC/41/18/Add.1 47. In paragraph 37, the report analyzes the criminal processes initiated against deputies of the National Assembly. In its study, the OHCHR neglects to mention the attempted assassination of the President of the Republic on August 4, 2018, that was organized by National Assembly deputies. Furthermore, in referring to the events of April 30, 2019, the Office fails to include that the deputies not only called for the armed forces to “desert and defy the government”, they also positioned themselves on a public road with high grade military weapons, aimed at the civilian population, in an attempted coup d’état. It also fails to stress their repeated calls for foreign military intervention. 48. In paragraph 39, the report refers to demonstrations held in Venezuela during the past several years. However, these references are based on unofficial information and they disregard data provided by the State on this matter. As was noted in the response to the questionnaire sent by the OHCHR, in 2017 there were 12,913 demonstrations throughout the national territory, of which 5,975 were violent protests of a political nature. In 2018, there were 7,563 demonstrations, and as of May there have been 3,251 demonstrations in 2019. 49. Likewise, in paragraph 39 the OHCHR fails to mention the different expressions of violence carried out by the demonstrators, particularly in 2013, 2014 and 2017, as well as the consequences of said violence and the case of people killed or injured. The High Commissioner was able to gather abundant information on this subject during her visit to the country. Furthermore, in the response to the OHCHR questionnaire, the Government indicated that at least 9 officials died and another 1,263 were wounded in 2017 and 2019 as a result of the violence carried out by the opposition sector during public demonstrations. 50. In paragraph 41, the report cites figures of people allegedly detained “for political reasons” provided by non-governmental organization. However, it omits information provided by the Government in relation to cases of people detained in the country. In this context, it is alarming that the OHCHR did not review each of these cases in detail and characterizes police officials who have been convicted for violating human rights, people sentenced for burning human being alive, and others detained for the homicide of civilians or security officials, among other particularly serious crimes, as being detained “for political reasons.” 51. In paragraph 45, the report analyzes the conditions of the country’s detention centers. In this study, the OHCHR ignores the major advances achieved by the State in the penitentiary system, which were observed by the Office’s personnel during its visit to the Ministry of People’s Power for Penitentiary Services and to two penitentiaries in the country. Moreover, this progress was recognized by the High Commissioner herself in a meeting held in Venezuela with experts on civil and political rights. 52. With the information provided by the Government and directly gathered by the OHCHR in detention centers, it is incomprehensible that the Office makes no distinction whatsoever between preventive detention centers, where there are still challenges that the State admits, and the country’s penitentiary centers. 53. In paragraph 46, the report claims that Venezuela has only a single detention center for women, and, as such, the system does not fulfill the specific standards on the issue of gender. This allegation is incorrect. There are 17 penitentiary establishments for women in Venezuela15 under the supervision of the Ministry of People’s Power for Penitentiary 15 8 The 17 penitentiary establishments for women are the following: 1) National Institute for Women’s Guidance (Instituto Nacional de Orientación Femenina); 2) Las Crisálidas Women’s Training Center (Centro de Formación Femenino “Las Crisálidas”); 3) Women’s Annex to the Aragua Penitentiary Center (Anexo Femenino del Centro Penitenciario de Aragua); 4) Carabobo Women’s Detention Center (Centro de Reclusión Femenino de Carabobo); 5) Women’s Annex to the General Penitentiary of Venezuela (Anexo Femenino de la Penitenciaría General de Venezuela); 6) Women’s Annex to the Coro Community Penitentiary (Anexo Femenino de la Comunidad Penitenciaria de Coro); 7) Women’s Annex to the Lara Fénix Community Penitentiary (Anexo Femenino de la Comunidad Penitenciara Fénix Lara); 8) Ana María Campos I Women’s Training Center (Centro de Formación Femenino “Ana María Campos I”); 9) Ana María Campos II Women’s Training Center (Centro de Formación Femenino “Ana María Campos II”); 10) Independencia Women’s Training Center (Centro de Formación Femenino Independencia); 11) Women’s Annex to the Barinas Judicial Confinement Center (Anexo Femenino del Internado Judicial de Barinas); 12) Women’s Annex to
