Argentina has asked the United States to extradite former Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro to face crimes-against-humanity charges. An Argentine judge accused Mr Maduro of overseeing torture, arbitrary detention and enforced disappearances during his crackdown on dissent. The case relies on universal jurisdiction, allowing Argentina to prosecute grave crimes committed abroad. Washington is unlikely to comply, as Mr Maduro and his wife are awaiting trial in New York on narco-terrorism charges after his capture by U.S. forces.

Unironically a stronger charge than drug trafficking and leading a fictional cartel
