被罢黜的委内瑞拉领导人尼古拉斯·马杜罗及其妻子可能面临与虐待美国人相关的新指控，与此同时检察官正在反驳他们要求驳回刑事案件被驳回的诉求。
据福克斯新闻记者大卫·斯彭特和杰克·帕罗尼奇透露，额外指控预计将在曼哈顿联邦法院宣布。
美国检察官杰米·麦克唐纳预计将在上午10:30的听证会结束后发表讲话。
该听证会原计划处理马杜罗的妻子西莉亚·弗洛雷斯·德·马杜罗因包括心脏病等持续的健康问题申请保释的请求。

这些预计新增的指控将叠加在已有指控之上，包括可卡因贩运、毒品恐怖主义和武器犯罪。
马杜罗和弗洛雷斯否认这些指控，并以主权豁免权为由试图驳回案件。
联邦检察官在最近的法庭文件中予以反驳，称两名被告都无权获得这种保护，且委内瑞拉并未代表他们主张豁免权。
美国政府指出，自2019年1月以来，美国就不再承认马杜罗为委内瑞拉国家元首。
“被告是一个前流氓国家的前流氓官员，无权获得豁免权，”检察官写道。

他们辩称，外国主权豁免权“是美国出于恩典和礼让的事项，而非宪法施加的限制”。
检察官还辩称，所指控的可卡因贩运、毒品恐怖主义和武器犯罪违反了法律，而非任何合法的政府职能。
马杜罗的律师在动议中辩称，法院没有管辖权，因为他被承认为委内瑞拉国家元首。弗洛雷斯则单独提交了一份动议，以主权豁免权为由要求驳回案件。
马杜罗还对毒品恐怖主义共谋罪提出异议。他的律师表示，他强烈否认参与旨在为据称从事恐怖主义活动的组织牟利的贩毒行为，并辩称检察官未能满足该指控所需的构成要件。

政府反驳称，“被禁止的毒品活动与美国存在关联，并意图对美国产生影响。
检察官指控马杜罗和其他被告参与可卡因贩运活动，导致数千吨可卡因被运往美国，为暴力恐怖组织提供资金和支持。
与此同时，弗洛雷斯的律师提出了居家监禁的申请，附带GPS监控、全天候武装监视、上交旅行证件以及由法院批准的第三方监管人。

她的律师表示，她在被捕前刚完成全子宫切除术，目前正在接受二尖瓣脱垂的每月注射治疗。根据她的保释动议，她现在可能需要接受心脏导管插入术，这可能会导致更具侵入性的心脏手术。
“她的健康状况十分严重，尽管尽了最大努力，目前的羁押环境不足以让她从心脏手术中顺利康复，”她的律师写道。
弗洛雷斯的辩护团队还辩称，她对社区没有任何危险，并否认针对她的所有指控。

Deposed Venezuelan Nicolás Maduro and his wife could face new charges tied to the alleged torture of Americans as prosecutors fight their efforts to have their criminal case thrown out.
The additional charges are expected to be announced in Manhattan federal court, according to Fox News’ David Spunt and Jake Paronich.
U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald is expected to speak after a 10:30 a.m. hearing.
That hearing was scheduled to address a request by Maduro’s wife, Cilia Flores de Maduro, to be released from custody because of ongoing medical problems, including a heart condition.

The expected charges would add to a case already involving allegations of cocaine trafficking, narco-terrorism and weapons offenses.
Maduro and Flores deny the allegations and have sought to dismiss the case on sovereign immunity grounds.
Federal prosecutors pushed back in a recent court filing, arguing neither defendant is entitled to that protection and that Venezuela has not asserted immunity on their behalf.
The government noted that the U.S. has not recognized Maduro as Venezuela’s head of state since January 2019.
“The defendants are former rogue officials of a formerly rogue state with no entitlement to immunity,” prosecutors wrote.

They argued that foreign sovereign immunity is “a matter of grace and comity on the part of the U.S., and not a restriction imposed by the Constitution.”
Prosecutors also argued that the alleged cocaine trafficking, narco-terrorism and weapons offenses violated the law rather than served any legitimate government function.
Maduro’s attorneys argued in their motion that the court lacks jurisdiction because he is recognized as Venezuela’s head of state. Flores separately filed a motion seeking dismissal on sovereign immunity grounds.
Maduro is also challenging the narco-terrorism conspiracy count. His lawyers said he vehemently denies involvement in drug trafficking intended to benefit groups allegedly engaged in terrorism and argued that prosecutors have not met the elements required for the charge.

The government countered that the “prohibited drug activity had a nexus to and intended effect on the United States.”
Prosecutors allege Maduro and other defendants participated in cocaine trafficking that resulted in thousands of tons of cocaine being distributed to the United States, funding and supporting violent terrorist organizations.
Meanwhile, Flores’ attorneys have proposed home confinement with GPS monitoring, round-the-clock armed surveillance, surrender of her travel documents and a court-approved third-party custodian.

Her lawyer said she was recovering from a complete hysterectomy before her arrest and receiving monthly injections for mitral valve prolapse. She may now need cardiac catheterization, which could lead to more invasive heart procedures, according to her release motion.
“Her medical condition is significant and her current housing, despite best efforts, is inadequate to allow for proper recovery from cardiac surgery,” her attorney wrote
Flores’ defense also argues she poses no danger to the community and denies the allegations against her.
