Venezuelan teen detained in hacking case

CARACAS, Venezuela - A 17-year-old has been detained by Venezuelan authorities after hacking into multiple government Web sites and posting playful photos of President Hugo Chavez and his close ally, Cuba's Fidel Castro.
The boy modified 23 Web sites — including those of the vice president's office, the National Guard and the investigative police — in late December, said Oswaldo Guevara, the investigative police's head of computer-related crimes.
He appended his hacker name — "J41ber" — and home telephone number on the photo postings and other cosmetic changes made to the home pages, and the modifications included photomontages of Chavez and Castro, Guevara said.
