A leading Venezuelan dissident held for over a year will be allowed to leave prison and be placed under house arrest because of health problems, court officials said on Tuesday, according to AFP.
Daniel Ceballos has been in custody since March 2014, when he was arrested for his alleged role in organizing anti-government street protests.
He will be transferred to home detention for unspecified health reasons, according to a statement from prosecutors, after his court appeal requesting house arrest was granted.
