Information on a group under the name Movement 20 or Movimiento 20 could not be found among the sources consulted by the DIRB. However, Responses to Information Requests VEN18185.E of 18 August 1994 and VEN18935.E of 15 November 1994 contain information on student movements in Venezuela that may be of interest. The DIRB was unable to contact the Venezuelan organization cited in the latter Response in time to meet your deadline.
This Response was prepared after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the DIRB within time constraints. This Response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum.
