CARACAS (Reuters) - Venezuelan military officers are questioning four American missionaries after they took part in a health initiative and distributed medicine in a coastal village, the head of a Venezuelan evangelical group said on Friday.

The group, which came to Venezuela to work in the town of Ocumare de la Costa, was taken to a military base in the city of Maracay on Wednesday night to answer questions about the activities, said Abdy Pereira, President of the Association of Free Evangelical Churches of Venezuela.
