Venezuela's Supreme Court has officially declared Maduro the winner of the contested July 28 presidential election, despite opposition allegations of widespread vote fraud.
The court's presiding judge, Caryslia Rodriguez, announced the ruling, stating that the court "indisputably certified election materials and validated the results" issued by the National Electoral Council (CNE), confirming Maduro's victory.
Maduro, who claimed to have secured 52 percent of the vote, had earlier requested the court's intervention following opposition candidate Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia's assertions that he had actually won more than two-thirds of the votes.
The CNE, citing a cyberattack, did not release a precinct-level breakdown of the election results, leading to further scepticism and accusations from opposition groups that the hack was an excuse to obscure the true outcome.
The opposition's tally reportedly showed Gonzalez Urrutia, a 74-year-old candidate, as the clear winner, fueling ongoing disputes over the legitimacy of the election.
