Maduro brought to New York court for first hearing after capture by US

Deposed Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is set to make his first appearance Monday in an American courtroom on the narco-terrorism charges the Trump administration used to justify capturing him and bringing him to New York. Maduro and his wife are expected to appear at noon before a judge for a brief, but required, legal proceeding that will likely kick off a prolonged legal fight over whether he can be put on trial in the US. The couple were transported under armed guard early Monday from the Brooklyn jail where they've been detained to a Manhattan courthouse. The trip was swift. A motorcade carrying Maduro left jail around 7:15 am and made its way to a nearby athletic field, where Maduro slowly made his way to a waiting helicopter. The chopper flew across New York harbour and landed at a Manhattan heliport, where Maduro, limping, was loaded into an armoured vehicle. A few minutes later, the law enforcement caravan was inside a garage at the courthouse complex, just around the

Asian shares rise as markets weigh US capture of Venezuela's Prez Maduro

SINGAPORE, Jan 5 (Reuters) - Asian stocks opened higher and oil prices were choppy on Monday as investors looked past U.S. military action ‍over the weekend in Venezuela ​to prepare for a packed week of economic data releases in the first full trading week of the year. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan was last up 0.3%, while S&P 500 e-mini futures were last 0.1% higher.
