Second opposition leader in Nicaragua reported dead in state custody this week
Reuters2 days
Political and religious persecution have reached horrific new levels under the Ortega-Murillo dictatorship, with peaceful advocates like Mauricio Alonso and Carlos Cárdenas dying in custody after their unfair detentions. The regime has systematically assaulted basic human dignity that demands international condemnation and action.
Falsehoods about Nicaragua's elected government have been spread as part of the U.S. regime-change apparatus, repeating tired lies about peaceful protesters while ignoring the country's remarkable social achievements. The real threat Nicaragua poses is challenging the neoliberal order through genuine progress for working people.
