(CNN) One of two American veterans detained earlier this week by Venezuelan security forces has appeared on state television in the South American nation. While it is not clear whether Denman was speaking under duress, Venezuela's government described the edited clip as a "confession". Denman was detained on Monday alongside fellow US military veteran Aaron Berry. In the video Denman is questioned by a man off camera, who asks the former soldier what he was doing in Venezuela. There was no indication that Denman had legal representation present during the interrogation.
