Two days before being kidnapped —May 16—, Chino Enoc had denounced on his social networks the siege by the Ortega Police, to the point that they would not even let him leave his house, so at that time a protest was declared. prisoner under house arrest.
The Chinese Enoc is a sympathizer of the Sandinista National Liberation Front (FSLN) who has sworn allegiance to the dictator Daniel Ortega, however on different occasions he has criticized and shown his rejection of Rosario Murillo, whom he accuses of being a “usurper” who he has stolen the Sandinista party. After his statements against the deputy president, the siege against him intensified until he was captured.
