The regime of Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo released early 1,200 common inmates who were being held in Nicaraguan prisons for different crimes.
This Sunday, May 28, with the excuse of celebrating Nicaraguan mothers, the National Penitentiary System (SPN) executed the Ortega-Murillo order to release the 1,200 deprived of liberty through the legal figure of family coexistence.
During the central act of release, held at the Jorge Navarro prison, known as La Modelo, in Tipitapa, the Minister of the Interior, Amelia Coronel, told those released that they should not waste the opportunity they are being given because “they are only being give once.”
On previous occasions it has been reported that some of those released by the regime before serving their sentence under the benefit of family coexistence are arrested for the commission of a crime, generally more serious than the previous one. It has even been known of murders committed by these beneficiaries of the regime.

According to data published by the official media, the Ortega regime has released a total of 38,540 inmates before serving their sentences as of 2015.
So far this year alone, some 3,930 convicts have taken to the streets without serving the sentences that the Sandinista judicial system applied to them.
In the Ortega prisons there are still 47 political prisoners, whom the regime does not include in the releases, despite the fact that some of them are already about to serve their arbitrary sentences.
