"Editor’s note: This alert has been updated to remove previous mentions of journalist Fabiola Tercero, whose whereabouts are still unknown after police raided her home on July 12, 2014, according to news reports.
Nicaraguan authorities deported 135 political prisoners to Guatemala on Thursday, Sept. 5, including journalist Víctor Ticay.
[...]
Authorities arrested Ticay, a reporter for privately owned TV broadcaster Canal 10, after he live-streamed a Catholic Easter celebration on April 6, 2023, following a government ban on public expressions of religion. He was sentenced to eight years in prison in August 2023 on charges of conspiracy to undermine national integrity and disseminating false news."
