Ortega allies threaten, as opponents are arrested, flee Nicaragua
Al JazeeraFor the second time in two years, one of Nicaragua’s most influential journalists, Carlos Fernando Chamorro – a former ally of President Daniel Ortega – has gone into exile. Vice President Rosario Murillo calls it “late justice”, accusing the imprisoned opponents of conspiring with foreign powers to undermine the interests of the nation. The crackdown has alarmed the international community UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet has issued a new report expressing “a worrying and accelerating deterioration of the human rights situation. Earlier, Human Rights Watch issued its own report detailing what it called “gross physical and political rights abuses” against many opponents.
