 AAC SEEK FURTHER INVESTIGATION INTO ON SOWORE IN EKITI The African Action Congress, AAC, has called for further investigation into the reported attack on Omoyele Sowore and other party members in Ekiti State, despite the arrest of eleven suspects. In a statement by its national publicity secretary, Rex Elanu, the AAC says new video footage has emerged which it believes could help identify more persons involved in the incident. The party has expressed concern over the handling of CCTV recordings from the restaurant where the incident occurred, and alleges that some stolen phones were traced to the governor's lodge in Ekiti State. It is seeking an independent investigation into these claims, the handling of recovered items and the circumstances surrounding the incident. The AAC has also called for the arrest and prosecution of any other persons found to have been involved, and demanded an investigation into the conduct of any security officers who may have acted unprofessionally.

 Argentina seeks extradition of Maduro from the US on charges of crimes against humanity

 An Argentine federal judge has requested the extradition of former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro from the United States so he can face charges of crimes against humanity in Argentina. The request follows Maduro’s capture by U.S. forces last month and his current detention in New York, where he is facing federal charges related to narco-terrorism and conspiracy to import cocaine. The Argentine case accuses Maduro of directing a brutal crackdown on protesters and political opponents during his presidency, including allegations of torture, arbitrary detention, and enforced disappearances carried out by Venezuelan security and intelligence forces. Victims named in the case include Venezuelans who say they were subjected to severe human rights abuses under Maduro’s rule.

The case was filed in Buenos Aires in 2023 by human rights organizations representing those victims and is based on the principle of universal jurisdiction, which allows Argentine courts to prosecute serious international crimes regardless of where they were committed. The extradition request cites a 1997 treaty between Argentina and the United States and acknowledges Maduro’s recent capture. Argentine prosecutors moved forward with the request after an international arrest warrant was issued last year. While the U.S. government is unlikely to approve the extradition while Maduro and his wife remain in custody awaiting trial, advocates behind the case say the move represents a significant step toward accountability for Venezuelan victims and reinforces Argentina’s role as one of the few countries willing to pursue crimes-against-humanity cases beyond its borders.
