Guaidó seeks the support of European leaders 0:49
(CNN Spanish) - The National Assembly of Venezuela denounced on Tuesday the disappearance of Deputy Ismael León, of Popular Will.
Through its official Twitter account, the Legislative Branch qualifies what happened to the legislator of the Capital District of “forced disappearance” and warns that it is a clear violation of parliamentary immunity established in the National Constitution.
The statement says that the deputy moved to the Legislative Palace when he was “intercepted” by members of the Special Forces of the Bolivarian National Police (FAES).

Popular Will also issued a statement denouncing the disappearance of León and holding the questioned President Nicolás Maduro responsible for what could happen to the deputy.
CNN has not been able to independently confirm these facts and requested information from the Ministry of Communication of the Government but so far has not received a response.
