U.S. authorities have released new photographs showing detained Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro in custody, following his capture and transfer under ongoing U.S.–led operations related to the political upheaval in Venezuela. The images, circulated through official government channels, appear to show Maduro under restraint while in secure holding, further underscoring the United States’ confirmation of his detention status.
The release of the photos comes after earlier announcements by President Donald Trump and the White House confirming Maduro’s capture, along with reports of his removal from Venezuelan territory. The images are already generating widespread reaction across political, diplomatic, and public spheres, as global observers continue to monitor developments surrounding Venezuela’s leadership transition and security environment.
OYOGist reports that U.S. officials have not yet provided additional details about Maduro’s legal or detention proceedings, but further briefings are expected as the situation evolves.
