'Maduro should pay,' 'Hands off Venezuela'- crowd split outside pre-trial hearing in NY
As ousted Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores attended a hearing Wednesday (July 22) in New York in which they were told their trial will begin next year, his supporters and detractors gathered outside to debate the legitimacy of the process. The pair go on trial on U.S. drug trafficking charges starting on June 1, 2027, a judge said on Wednesday. Maduro wore beige prison garb as he was led into a Manhattan courtroom by U.S. marshals for a hearing before U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein in one of the most consequential criminal cases in recent U.S. history. U.S. commandos captured Maduro, 63, and Flores, 69, at their heavily guarded home in Caracas during a January 3 nighttime military raid ordered by President Donald Trump.
