Maduro Faces New Charge of Torturing US Citizens in Custody
Prosecutors in New York charged Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro with conspiring in the torture of nine individuals, including three US citizens. The allegations detail severe mistreatment endured by an American detainee over 8.5 months. This indictment follows Maduro's recent capture during a US military operation, with his legal team asserting his innocence and seeking bail for his wife, Cilia Flores.
