PARAGUAY: Offer of a deal with Oviedo is alleged
When the local media claimed that the government had offered to release
former general Lino Oviedo from prison if his party, the Unión Nacional de
Ciudadanos Eticos (Unace) supported President Nicanor Duarte's proposal to lift
the ban on reelection, the government dismissed the accusation in what appeared
to be great indignation. On 27 August the report was corroborated by Unace
president Enrique González, who is also the president of congress.
