US indicts ex-Venezuelan leader Maduro for torture

Original: New U.S. in­dictment charges former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro with torture

US prosecutors have filed a new indictment against former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, adding charges of torture to the existing narcotics and corruption case against him. The move escalates Washington's legal campaign against Maduro, who remains unrecognized by the US as Venezuela's legitimate leader. Observers see it as part of broader US pressure on his government.

Why now: The fresh torture charges mark a significant escalation in US legal action against Maduro amid ongoing tensions with Venezuela.
