CARACAS, Venezuela, Shawwal 27, 1436, August 12, 2015, SPA -- One of the Venezuelan opposition's most prominent leaders will be released to house arrest while he awaits trial, the government said Tuesday, stirring hope for the dozens of administration critics who remain behind bars, according to AP. The public prosecutor's office announced that Daniel Ceballos, a former mayor of the restive western city of San Cristobal, would be released for health reasons. He suffered from kidney and stomach problems during a 20-day hunger strike in June, according to his supporters. --SPA 03:36 LOCAL TIME 00:36 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
