OH: German journalist Billy Six ‘charged with espionage’ in Venezuela.

Venezuelan rights group Espacio Público says Mr Six, who writes for right-wing newspaper Junge Freiheit, has been charged with espionage and rebellion.

Relatives say he was arrested more than three weeks ago while reporting on Venezuela’s economic crisis and the mass migration it has triggered.

Diplomatic officials have reportedly not been allowed to see him.

Six did not make Time magazine’s Person of the Year list, despite being a journalist imprisoned by a brutal regime on questionable charges.
