CARACAS, July 2 (Xinhua) -- A Venezuelan court admitted on Tuesday a case against a group of people allegedly involved in a failed attack against President Nicolas Maduro last year.

"The First Court of Caracas fully admitted the accusation made by the Public Prosecutor against Juan Requesens," the Supreme Court of Justice of Venezuela announced in a statement.

Requesens, deputy of opposition party Primero Justicia and one of the most high-profile detainees, is accused of crimes including treason, attempted murder, terrorism, criminal association, illegal possession of guns and ammunition.

The court ratified the decision to deprive Requesens of liberty and block his bank accounts and other assets. Moreover, he could face a sentence of 30 years in prison.

The judicial body also admitted accusation against several other people for crimes related to terrorism.

According to the official account, on Aug. 4, 2018, a seditious group attempted to assassinate Maduro by launching an attack with drones and explosives during a public ceremony held in the central Bolivar Avenue in Caracas.
