Demonstrators Wednesday voiced rejection and repudiation against the murder of brothers Jason Faddoul Diab (12), Kevin Faddoul Diab (13) and Bryan Faddoul Diab (17), and their driver Miguel Rivas (30) after they were kidnapped for 41 days. Dozen people demonstrated outside the Ministry of the Interior and Justice in Urdaneta Avenue, downtown Caracas, and demanded authorities to take the relevant decisions to face crime nationwide.

Protesters blocked roads in several areas of the Venezuelan capital, while motorists wrote "Mourning" and "Justice Now!" on their car windshields.

Opposition leaders took part in the demonstrations. Baruta Mayor Enrique Capriles Radonski claimed the murder shows that "life is worthless" in Venezuela.

He lashed out at Hugo Chávez' Government, saying that the Venezuelan administration constantly talks about imperialism and asymmetric war, rather than waging war against crime.

He stressed that 100,000 people have been killed in the last seven years in Venezuela. Capriles added that the citizens' security plan implemented by the Ministry of the Interior and Justice has failed.
