Hugo Chavez celebrates re-election in Venezuela



Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has hailed a "perfect victory", after defeating Henrique Capriles to secure a fourth term in office.
Mr Chavez won 54% of the vote, the electoral council announced, with turnout at about 81%.
Brandishing a replica of the sword of independence hero Simon Bolivar, he pledged Venezuela would continue its "march towards democratic socialism".
But he also vowed to engage opponents and to be a "better president".
Noisy celebrations among Chavez supporters erupted across the capital, Caracas, following the announcement of the result.
