MEXICO CITY (AP) \u2014 One of the six members of Venezuela\u2019s political opposition who have been sheltering for nine months in the Argentine diplomatic compound in the capital, Caracas, abandoned the premises Thursday.<\/p>\n
Two people familiar with the situation at the facility confirmed to The Associated Press that Fernando Mart\u00ednez left the ambassador\u2019s residence and was home. The people spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation.<\/p>\n
The conditions under which Martinez left the compound were not immediately clear.<\/p>\n

Since late November, the group has denounced the constant presence outside the residence of Venezuelan intelligence service agents and police. It has also accused the government of President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro of cutting electricity and water services.<\/p>\n
The government has denied the allegations.<\/p>\n
Those who remain at the Argentine ambassador\u2019s home include the campaign manager and communications director of opposition powerhouse Maria Corina Machado. The government of President Javier Milei allowed them into the compound in March after authorities loyal to the ruling party issued warrants for their arrest, accusing them of promoting alleged acts of violence to destabilize the country.<\/p>\n
Mart\u00ednez was involved in a parallel government that the opposition created after Maduro\u2019s widely considered sham reelection in 2018 and participated in negotiations between the opposition and the government. He was minister of communications and transportation in the 1990s.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
