The Supreme Court of Justice (SCJ), in the service of the dictatorship of Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo, reported this Tuesday, September 10, that the 135 former political prisoners who were exiled to Guatemala on the fifth of this month have been denationalized and all their assets “confiscated.”
The presidential marriage order was executed by the Criminal Chamber One of the Court of Appeals of the Managua District, which according to a press release published by the Sandinista propaganda media, based the arbitrary decision supposedly on the Political Constitution, the Penal Code and Laws #1055 (Law for the Defense of the Rights of the People to Independence, Sovereignty and Self-determination for Peace) and Law 1145 (Special Law regulating the loss of Nicaraguan Nationality).

The dictatorship justifies the stripping of the nationality of the 135 Nicaraguans supposedly because they were convicted of committing “criminal acts that threatened the sovereignty, independence and self-determination of the Nicaraguan people, inciting and promoting violence, hatred, terrorism and economic destabilization, altering peace, security and the constitutional order.”
The same Ortega court ruled “to confiscate all the assets of the convicted persons, in order to respond for the severe material and immaterial damages that their criminal activities caused to the population and the country; thus, effective justice is done to the victims of these crimes.”
Among those exiled whom the dictatorial regime of Ortega-Murillo accuses of the crimes of promoting hatred, terrorism and destabilization of the country, are young Nicaraguans such as Adela Espinoza, Gabriela Morales and Mayela Campos, activists and feminists, convicted, exiled and now denationalized and confiscated for burning a Sandinista flag, the painters Óscar Parrilla and Kevin Laguna, who were criminalized for starting a painting of Miss Universe Sheynnis Palacios on the wall of a private home.
There is also the TikToker, formerly a Sandinista, Cristóbal Geovanni López, known as “Tropi Gamer“, who in one of his videos defended Palacios from the mockery of Sandinista propagandists from Channel 13, owned by the dictatorial family, or the journalist Víctor Ticay who was tried by the Sandinista justice system for publishing a Catholic activity on his social networks.
The former prisoners of conscience were released and sent to Guatemala thanks to the efforts of the United States Government, which held “secret talks” with the dictatorship.
