A new U.S. indictment expands the drug trafficking charges already brought against Venezuela’s former president and his wife. The filing adds additional allegations to the existing case, further implicating the former leaders in the international drug trade. The charges are part of a broader effort by U.S. authorities to pursue alleged corruption and illicit activity linked to the Venezuelan regime. The case continues to develop as prosecutors seek to build on the earlier indictment.
The new US charge adds to the existing drug trafficking case against Venezuela’s former president and first lady.
