Fostul lider venezuelean Nicolas Maduro şi soţia sa, acuzați de tortură
Former Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife face torture charges in the U.S. after their capture by American forces. Prosecutors allege they tortured American citizens detained in Venezuela and conspired to suppress dissent through severe human rights violations. The U.S. claims they abused their public positions for personal gain and maintained power through corruption and human rights abuses for over 25 years. Maduro's authoritarian rule has led to economic decline amid mismanagement and sanctions. Their trial is set for June 1, 2027, while they remain in custody in New York, denying the charges and accusing the U.S. of kidnapping.
