Houston-based Sorrels Law filed a $400 million lawsuit against CITGO Petroleum and related entities for conspiracy to aid and abet the Venezuelan government in the wrongful arrest of two U.S. citizens.
The plaintiffs, brothers Jose Luis Zambrano and Alirio Zambrano, are two of the “CITGO 6″ that were confined under brutal conditions for five years. Five of the six were released in October 2022 as part of a prisoner exchange.
