Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro's family members indicted in U.S. court

Well this is awkward. The U.S. arrested the Venezuelan resident's family members while they were in Haiti and accused them of drug trafficking. It is too early in the investigation to know how true anything is but there are still so many other questions. For example were they diplomats from Venezuela to Haiti in which case doesn't the arrest violate diplomatic immunity? If for some reason it doesn't, Haiti has said that they were not a part of the raid in which case doesn't it violate state rights? I don't know but I'm sure it doesn't matter since it is the U.S. that is doing it.
