Edmundo “Pipo” Rada, Venezuelan opposition candidate assassinated.



Edmundo “Pipo” Rada, an opposition politician with the Voluntad Popular (Popular Will, VP) party, was found murdered earlier today after he went missing yesterday. Rada’s badly-burned body was found on the side of a highway in the Sucre municipality of Miranda state. Rada had also been shot twice in the back of the head. His head was wrapped in plastic.
