Maduro Back in Court on Drug Charges | Charleston News
Description
Venezuela’s ex-president Nicolas Maduro is back in Manhattan court facing serious drug trafficking charges alongside his wife, Cilia Flores, with a trial slated for June 2027. Prosecutors are preparing to unveil evidence, including classified materials expected by November, while Maduro’s team plans to argue for dismissal based on sovereign immunity by September. The case, which includes charges of narco-terrorism and weapons offenses, stems from allegations of coordinating with cartels and the military to flood the U.S. with cocaine — all while Maduro insists he’s innocent and the constitutional leader.
