The plane, identified as a Dassault Falcon 900EX, was seized in the Dominican Republic and transported to Florida, the department said.

“This morning, the Justice Department seized an aircraft we allege was illegally purchased for $13 million through a shell company and smuggled out of the United States for use by Nicolás Maduro and his cronies,” Merrick Garland said. “The Department will continue to pursue those who violate our sanctions and export controls to prevent them from using American resources to undermine the national security of the United States.”

The department said Maduro’s associates arranged to purchase the jet from a U.S. company in south Florida for $13 million in late 2022 and early 2023. The plane was shipped to the Caribbean and then to Venezuela, the statement said, in violation of U.S. sanctions and export controls.

Since then, the jet “has flown almost exclusively to and from a military base in Venezuela and has been used for the benefit of Maduro and his representatives, to transport Maduro on visits to other countries,” according to the department. Online flight show a plane with the matching tail number at airports in China, Cuba and Brazil since 2023.
