Lawsuit Filed Against Maduro in US Over Killings
Families of five young men killed in Venezuela have filed a lawsuit against President Nicolás Maduro in an American court, accusing him of directing extrajudicial killings between 2017 and 2020 by special forces formed for this purpose, which were disbanded in 2021. The lawsuit indicated that these forces were used as tools of political repression and death squads, involved in targeted killings that included separating victims from their families and killing them, in an attempt to suppress opposition and intimidate low-income neighborhoods. It is worth noting that Maduro is currently detained in New York awaiting trial on drug trafficking charges, which he denies, asserting that he is a "prisoner of war."
