Alex Saab, a Colombian businessman and close ally of former Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, was deported to the United States on May 16, according to Venezuela’s migration agency, the Administrative Service for Identification, Migration, and Foreign Affairs.
The Venezuelan regime said that Saab was deported because he had been implicated in the commission of various crimes in the United States.
