(CNN) Two Venezuelan mayors are in hot water after marking the houses of potential Covid-19 patients with warning signs a measure that has been harshly criticized by civil rights NGOs and has prompted an investigation by Venezuela s attorney general.
In a video posted on his official Instagram account on Tuesday, Mayor Luis Adrian Duque of Guama, a small village in the central Venezuelan state of Yaracuy, announced the measure as part of the town lockdown policy. We are protecting our people, [this sign] indicates a positive case or a potential case, so that people are aware, Duque says in the video, pointing to a red prohibition sign placed on the window of a local house.
