CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) Venezuela has released a video showing six American oil executives jailed in Caracas as relatives appealed for international help in securing their release over fears about the mens health amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The men have been jailed for over two years since officials under Venezuelan President Nicols Maduro asked them to travel from the Houston-based CITGO headquarters for a meeting, when they were arrested.

Seeing these images has made me sick to my stomach, said Gabriela Zambrano, daughter of detained Alirio Zambrano. It hurts beyond belief to know the regime is continuing to use him as a human puppet.

Foreign Affairs Minister Jorge Arreaza posted a 30-second video of the men and photographs on his Twitter feed late Wednesday. Venezuelan law guarantees the right to health and preventive measures against COVID-19 and any other disease, Arreaza said.

The men dressed in orange jail garb stand before the camera, all wearing white face masks, except for Jos Pereira, who makes a statement, saying they are well cared for by jailers.

Given limitations, our conditions here have been good, Pereira says. They treat us with respect regarding our human rights.
