‘I Was Kidnapped’: Maduro Pleads Not Guilty To Drug Charges

By Marie

Deposed Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has pleaded not guilty to narcotics charges after his capture by United States forces in Caracas.

“I am innocent. I am not guilty. I am a decent man. I am still president of my country,” Maduro, 63, said through an interpreter, before being cut off by U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein in Manhattan federal court on Monday, January 5, 2026. Dozens of protesters, both pro- and anti-Maduro, gathered outside the courthouse before the half-hour hearing. Also Read: Ukraine Suspends Justice Minister Amid $100M Energy Corruption Scandal
