Venezuela Ally Alex Saab Extradited Again to United States
Share:
Alex Saab, a businessman and ally of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, has been extradited to the United States for a second time. Saab accumulated significant wealth through government contracts with the Venezuelan regime. He was first arrested in Cape Verde in 2020 on suspicion of money laundering. The extradition represents another blow to Maduro's network of associates as the U.S. continues its legal pursuit of individuals connected to the Venezuelan government amid ongoing international efforts to address corruption and sanctions evasion.
