Chavez expected to return to Venezuela in coming days – brother

A brother of Hugo Chavez has said the Venezuelan president is expected to return home from Cuba in the coming days as he continues to recover from the cancer surgery he underwent nearly six weeks ago. Argenis Chavez, one of the president’s five brothers and the president of the National Electric Corporation, told Associated Press that his brother continues to recover. He added that it was up to the medical team to decide on the timing of his return. On Sunday, Vice President Nicolas Maduro said in a televised interview that Chavez was finishing with the “post-operative” phase of his treatment.
