Ex-Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and wife seek to end drug charges case on immunity grounds

Former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife are attempting to have a drug trafficking indictment against them dismissed, citing diplomatic immunity due to their former status as leader and first lady of Venezuela. This move comes amid ongoing international scrutiny and legal battles concerning corruption and illicit activities in Venezuela. If successful, this could prevent any legal consequences for the couple in the U.S. and raise significant questions about the limits of diplomatic immunity and accountability for former leaders.
