US court sets June 2027 trial for Venezuela's ousted Maduro

Venezuela's ousted president Nicolas Maduro will go on trial in the United States on June 1, 2027, a judge ruled Wednesday, after his capture in a stunning U.S. military raid in January.

The former leader, 63, and his wife Cilia Flores have been held in a Brooklyn jail for more than seven months after pleading not guilty to drug trafficking and firearms charges.
