Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, arrived at a U.S. federal court in New York to face narco-terrorism charges. The couple were transported under armed guard todayfrom a Brooklyn jail, where they have been detained, to a courthouse in Manhattan. U.S. forces captured Maduro and his wife in a military operation on Saturday, detaining them at their residence on a military base. A 25-page indictment made public the same day accuses Maduro and others of working with drug cartels to facilitate the shipment of thousands of tons of cocaine into the United States. The indictment also alleges that Maduro’s wife accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes in 2007 to arrange a meeting between a major drug trafficker and the director of Venezuela’s National Anti-Drug Office.
