Globovisión's legal counsel Ana Cristina Núñez confirmed that "Conatel has no powers to address issues related to election results."
Officials from Venezuela's National Telecommunication Commission (Conatel) visited the seat of private TV news channel Globovisión to give notice of another administrative investigation into the television network, for alleged solicitation to public order disturbance when the station broadcast remarks of then Carabobo state governor candidate Henrique Salas Feo before the National Electoral Council (CNE) stated he was the winner.
According to CNE director Vicente Díaz, the statements of now Carabobo governor-elect Salas Feo came after the top electoral body published the first official bulletin of electoral results. Therefore, they do not imply any electoral offense.
Meanwhile, Globovisión's legal counsel Ana Cristina Núñez confirmed that "Conatel has no powers to address issues related to election results." Further general director of the TV news channel Alberto Federico Ravell said that the investigation was launched because the Venezuelan President and his cabinet are grieving after they lost political ground in the country.
