Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is facing a major setback in his high-profile case against the US government. Defence lawyers for the Venezuelan leader have requested that the case be dismissed, citing a grave infringement on Maduro's rights. The lawyers claim that Maduro's rights were violated when he was allegedly abducted by US agents, sparking a heated diplomatic row between the two nations. As the case continues to unfold, the international community is watching closely to see how the US will respond to the defence team's latest move.
