Chavez returns to powe
two days after arrest
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — Triumphant
yet chastened, President Hugo Chavez returned to
office on the wings of a popular uprising two days
after he was ousted and arrested by Venezuela’s
military, saying he has reflected on his mistakes
and was prepared to “make corrections.’’
“I do not come with hate or rancor in my
heart, but we must make decisions and adjust
things,” Chavez said at dawn, moments after
pushing past tens of thousands of supporters to
reclaim the presidential
palace in Venezuela, the
third-biggest supplier of
oil to the United States.
Opposition leaders
stayed clear of public light
on Sunday. Venezuelans
struggled to make sense of
the dizzying, bloody
sequence of events that led
to Chavez’s brief ouster
and stunning return

Sunday, streets in the capital were empty.

Chavez was ousted by his military high com

Economist Pedro Carmona was sworn in
Friday, only to resign a day later amid widespread
street protests, looting and rebellions by several
military officers who refused to go along with the
plan. Chavez’s vice president said Saturday that
Carmona and his supporters would be tried.
“I’m sorry, but the pain I feel doesn’t let me

NEWS IN BRIEF
Six-figure speeding ticket
tests Finland’s egalitarian
HELSINKI, Finland (AP) — Looking at Anssi
Vanjoki’s speeding ticket, many Finns are wonder
ing whether their egalitarian spirit has taken them
over the edge.
True, Vanjoki was doing 46.5 mph in a 30-mph
zone. But $103,000?
The reason the penalty was so harsh is that traffic
fines in Finland are based not just on the severity of
the offense, but on the offender's income. Vanjokis
a senior executive of Nokia, the world’s largest cel
phone maker, and his fine was assessed on a
income of $5.2 million.
A court later slashed it to $5,245, butnotbefore
Finns flew into a rage.
"There is something rotten in our fining system
and it needs changing," says Leena HarkimaM
of 70 lawmakers in the 200-member Parliaiiwt
who want the law amended. "People are
before the law whatever their color, age,»»
and so they should be when it comes to wee"
