Two organizations that were outlawed by the Daniel Ortega regime denounced this Wednesday the dispossession of their facilities by the authorities.
“Grupo Venancia denounces that today, February 8, starting at 9:30 a.m., there are police officers, riot police, PGR (Attorney General’s Office) personnel, and civilians taking over the facilities where we work by force. for 31 years,” said this group of women, through a statement.
“The dispossession of our property is one more arbitrary step, after the illegal cancellation of our legal personality, because we already know that the laws are empty paper in this country,” continued this group of women, who described the action as “another sign of state violence against our rights”.
According to the Venancia Group, the occupation of its facilities in the city of Matagalpa “is a robbery, it is not even a confiscation, because they are not complying with the legal procedures for it.”
“They deprive us of our premises, but not of our commitment to the defense of human rights in all its extension, nor of the ideal of a Nicaragua with justice, freedom and democracy, where working for the common good and defending rights is not a crime” , I note.
Also the CPDH
For its part, the Permanent Commission on Human Rights (CPDH) denounced from Miami, where its activists have gone into exile, that the “bloody dictatorship of the Sandinista Front, headed by Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo in Nicaragua, in addition to consummating the theft of our offices in Managua, intends to erase all traces of the work we do in defense of the Nicaraguan people”.
“Our emblems and colors were erased from our building, but they will not be able to erase the crimes and tortures committed due to their excessive ambitions for power and their totalitarian megalomania,” said that body, in a statement.
The CPDH maintained that it never saw political colors in its work receiving and monitoring complaints, “on the contrary, we have always kept in mind the commitment to the people, and we continue to defend it at any cost.”
“The defense of human rights is much more than a building. Long live Nicaragua,” she added.
