De gevangengenomen Venezolaanse president Nicolás Maduro en zijn vrouw Cilia Flores hebben in de Verenigde Staten allebei een nieuwe aanklacht tegen zich ingediend gekregen. Ze worden er nu ook van beschuldigd politieke tegenstanders en Amerikaanse burgers te hebben gemarteld om hun machtspositie in het Zuid-Amerikaanse land te behouden.

Flores (69) en Maduro (63) werden op 3 januari door het Amerikaanse leger uit Venezuela ontvoerd en naar New York gebracht.
