Venezuela's Supreme Court announced the indictment of three more lawmakers on Wednesday for backing the failed April 30 uprising orchestrated by opposition leader Juan Guaido.
It brings to 10 the number of opposition lawmakers indicted for supporting Guaido, following a court announcement indicting seven others on Tuesday.
Soon after the announcement, the Constituent Assembly -- which effectively acts as a regime rubber stamp -- stripped the seven of their parliamentary immunity.
The Constituent Assembly has said it would suspend the immunity of any lawmakers who backed the uprising, which set off two days of clashes between security forces and protesters. Attorney General Tarek William Saab says the clashes left six people dead.
Dozens more were injured and more than 233 were arrested.
