Credited from: INDIATIMES

  • Matthew Heath and Osman Khan, two Americans, have initiated legal proceedings against Venezuela's President Nicolás Maduro, accusing him of overseeing a state-sponsored criminal operation.
  • The lawsuit, filed in a Miami federal court, asserts that Maduro's government routinely uses American citizens as tools in political negotiations with the US.
  • Heath and Khan's 87-page complaint details severe mistreatment, including waterboarding and electric shocks, endured while in custody.
  • Both men claim their detention was aimed at pressuring the US regarding sanctions and prisoner exchanges, with Heath detained in 2020 and Khan in 2022.
  • Venezuela's government has denied the allegations, stating that they do not target Americans.
