Venezuela’s abducted President Nicolas Maduro has asked a United States judge to throw out drug trafficking charges brought against him by the Trump administration, alleging that Washington was sabotaging his constitutional right to defend himself.
Maduro’s legal team argued on Thursday that the case should be thrown out because the US government has blocked the Venezuelan government from covering the abducted president’s legal fees and those of his wife.
