Argentina seeks Maduro extradition from US over crimes against humanity — ruling

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AFP) — Argentine authorities on Wednesday requested the extradition of deposed Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro from the United States (US) to face charges of crimes against humanity, according to a court ruling obtained by AFP.

An Argentine judge evoked the principle of universal jurisdiction to request that Maduro, who was captured by US forces on January 3 and taken to New York, be handed over for questioning in connection with allegations of grave rights abuses.
