Venezuelan opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez has been released from prison and placed under house arrest for health reasons, his lawyer said.
Venezuela's Supreme Court confirmed on its Twitter account it had ordered Lopez to be moved to house arrest, calling it a "humanitarian measure" granted on Friday by the court's president Maikel Moreno.
"Leopoldo Lopez is at his home in Caracas with (wife) Lilian and his children," Lopez's Spanish lawyer Javier Cremades said in Madrid. "He is not yet free but under house arrest. He was released at dawn."
