New York: US authorities on Monday transferred Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro from his place of detention to a federal courthouse in New York City to appear before the court.
President Maduro appeared before the court just two days after being captured along with his wife, Cilia Flores, in Caracas during an operation carried out by US forces.
Live footage broadcast by US media showed Maduro en route to New York for his court appearance, under heavy security.
US Attorney General Pam Bondi stated last Saturday that the indictment against President Maduro includes charges of conspiracy related to narco-terrorism, conspiracy to import cocaine, possession of weapons and destructive devices, and conspiracy to possess weapons and destructive devices against the United States.
These developments come two days after US President Donald Trump announced a large-scale strike against Venezuela and the capture and transfer of President Maduro and his wife to US territory.
