"Yes, there is a lot of crime in Venezuela. The country has one of the highest murder rates in the world, and violent crime is rampant. Kidnappings, robberies, and carjackings are common, and the government has been unable to effectively address the problem. In addition, corruption and organized crime are widespread, and the country has become a major transit point for illegal drugs," said a member in Venezuela.
