Venezuelan strongman Nicolas Maduro claimed that he captured two American “mercenaries” after they launched a botched attempt to overthrow his regime.
In a TV address on Monday, Maduro held up passports that he said belonged to the two men in addition to their driver’s licenses and ID cards for Silvercorp, a security company based in Florida whose owner said he was behind the failed coup. Maduro has asserted that the identifying documents belong to Silvercorp employees Airan Berry and Luke Denman, according to CNN.
