The U.S. Department of Justice has confiscated assets worth more than $700 million that investigators say are linked to Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced on Wednesday. Bondi described the move as part of a broader effort against what she called “organized crime, no different from the mafia.” Authorities say the haul includes two private jets, several mansions—among them properties in Florida and the Dominican Republic—a horse farm, nine vehicles, millions of dollars in jewelry and large sums of cash. The seizures stem from long-running inquiries into the so-called Cartel de los Soles, which the Trump administration designated a terrorist organization in July. Bondi added that Washington is intensifying pressure on Maduro, noting that the Justice and State Departments on 7 August doubled the reward for information leading to his arrest to $50 million. Maduro, indicted by U.S. prosecutors in 2020 on narcotics and terrorism charges, denies the allegations, while Caracas dismisses the cartel accusations as a political fabrication.
