PoliticsNicolás Maduro Charged with Torturing Americans in Venezuelan Prison
The U.S. Justice Department charged former Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, with torturing detainees, including Americans, to suppress opposition and maintain power. Already facing drug trafficking charges, they are set for trial in June 2027. Prosecutors allege torture methods such as electric shocks, rape, isolation, and starvation to repress dissent and undermine Venezuela's democracy.
