AFP. 12 April 2002. Chavez did not resign, his last education minister
says.

CARACAS -- Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez did not resign but was taken
prisoner, his last education minister said Friday.

Chavez "told the military staff he was not resigning, that they could go
ahead with their coup and take responsibility for it," said Aristobulo
Isturiz, who was with Chavez at the Miraflores presidential palace until
he was taken to Fort Tiuna base, just hours after the elected leftist
president's government collapsed.

"They took him away under arrest," Isturiz said, denying press reports
Chavez was in hiding and that authorities were searching for him.
