Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, have been indicted in the Southern District of New York, US Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed in a X post on Saturday.

Maduro has been charged with Narco-Terrorism Conspiracy, Cocaine Importation Conspiracy, Possession of Machineguns and Destructive Devices, and Conspiracy to Possess Machineguns and Destructive Devices against the US, the US Attorney General asserted.

Maduro has been captured and flown out of Venezuela after the US carried out a large-scale strike on the capital city of Caracas, US President Donald Trump announced earlier on Saturday.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio claimed in a call with a US Republican senator that Maduro will stand trial in the US and that he anticipates no further action, CNN reported.
