Nicolás Maduro is reported to have arrived at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn, according to US media.

He is expected to make an initial appearance in Manhattan federal court on Monday, according to officials.

CBS News reported Maduro arrived at the Metropolitan Detention Center, known as MDC, at about 8:52pm ET on Saturday.

The facility has held several high profile inmates, including rapper Sean “Diddy”, who was held there during his trial, until he was sentenced following his conviction on federal prostitution-related charges.
