委内瑞拉前总统尼古拉斯·马杜罗在美国面临新的法律诉讼：5名委内瑞拉男子的家属提起民事诉讼，指控他在执政期间指挥委内瑞拉一支警察部队实施法外处决和酷刑。
诉状指控马杜罗创建了委内瑞拉特别行动部队（FAES），并对该部队在2017年至2021年间实施的法外处决行动行使指挥权。家属依据《酷刑受害者保护法》寻求补偿性和惩罚性赔偿。
这起诉讼为马杜罗在美国打开了第二条法律战线，他此前已因联邦贩毒和武器指控等待审判。诉状称，纽约东区联邦地区法院拥有合法管辖权，因为马杜罗目前被关押在布鲁克林的大都会拘留中心。

根据诉状，特别行动部队的警员经常在黎明前身着黑衣、蒙面闯入民宅，将年轻男子与家人分开，强迫他们下跪后将其处决，随后伪造犯罪现场，让受害者看起来像是“拒捕”。原告还指控警员抢劫住宅、植入武器，并在受害者死后将其送往医院，以掩盖所谓的处决行为。
这起诉讼详细描述了2017年至2021年间涉及6名受害者的5起事件，同时指控特别行动部队的警员对3名亲属实施酷刑，包括殴打、拘留或强迫他们目睹处决，而委内瑞拉的司法系统并未为他们伸张正义。
代表原告的律师、马杜罗的律师巴里·波拉克以及国际特赦组织并未立即回应福克斯新闻数字频道的置评请求。

诉状指控马杜罗于2017年在委内瑞拉玻利瓦尔国家警察内部设立特别行动部队作为特殊战术单位，此后尽管遭到联合国和其他人权组织的批评，仍公开为该部队辩护。诉状引用了联合国、人权观察组织和美国国务院的报告，这些报告记录了该部队广泛存在的侵犯人权指控。
家属辩称，他们无法在委内瑞拉获得正义，因为检察官要么拒绝展开调查，要么未能追究高级官员的责任，导致他们在本国无法获得有效的法律救济。

Families sue Maduro in US, accuse ex-president of directing police unit tied to extrajudicial killings

Former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is facing a new legal challenge in the United States after the families of five Venezuelan men filed a civil lawsuit accusing him of overseeing a Venezuelan police unit responsible for extrajudicial killings and torture during his presidency.
The complaint alleges Maduro created Venezuela’s Special Action Forces, known as FAES, and exercised command over the unit as it allegedly carried out a campaign of extrajudicial killings between 2017 and 2021. The families are seeking compensatory and punitive damages under the Torture Victim Protection Act.
The lawsuit opens a second legal front for Maduro in the United States, where he is already awaiting trial on federal drug trafficking and weapons charges. The complaint says venue is proper in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York because Maduro is currently detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.

According to the complaint, FAES officers routinely entered homes before dawn wearing black clothing and face coverings, separated young men from their families, forced many to their knees, executed them and then staged crime scenes to make it appear the victims had “resisted authority.” Plaintiffs also allege officers looted homes, planted weapons and transported victims to hospitals after they had already died in an effort to conceal the alleged killings.
The lawsuit details five incidents between 2017 and 2021 involving six victims and also accuses FAES officers of torturing three relatives by beating, detaining or forcing them to witness the killings before they were denied justice through Venezuela’s judicial system.
Attorneys representing the plaintiffs, Maduro’s attorney Barry Pollack and Amnesty International did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

The lawsuit alleges Maduro established FAES in 2017 as a special tactical unit within Venezuela’s National Bolivarian Police and later publicly defended the force despite criticism from the United Nations and other human rights organizations. It cites reports from the United Nations, Human Rights Watch and the U.S. State Department documenting allegations of widespread human rights abuses by the unit.
The families argue they have been unable to obtain justice in Venezuela because prosecutors either refused to pursue investigations or failed to hold senior officials accountable, leaving them without an effective legal remedy in their home country.

The Torture Victim Protection Act allows civil claims in U.S. courts over alleged torture and extrajudicial killings committed under the authority of a foreign government.
Maduro served as Venezuela’s president from 2013 until 2026, according to the complaint. He has pleaded not guilty in his criminal case and has previously described himself as a “prisoner of war.”
