| Description | "The acting president of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, has put a curse on citizens who do not vote for him in next week's election.
He likened his main rival candidate, Henrique Capriles, to Spanish conquerors fighting indigenous people in the 16th Century.
A centuries-old curse, he said, would fall on those who did not vote for him.
Mr Capriles responded by saying the only curse for Venezuelans would be if Mr Maduro won the election.
The country goes to the polls next Sunday to elect a successor to Hugo Chavez, the long-time leftist leader who died of cancer last month." |
