“The non-governmental Nicaraguan Center for Human Rights (Cenidh, for its acronym in Spanish) denounced this Saturday [Jan. 30] the destruction of a headquarters of the digital media outlet Confidencial, critical of the president of Nicaragua, Daniel Ortega, in the context of the socio-political crisis that the Central American country has experienced since 2018.

'Knowing that they are destroying the facilities of one of the most important media outlets in the country, such as Confidencial, outrages and saddens us completely, but know that you are not alone, Nicaragua supports you and the dictatorship will not shut you up," the Cenidh said in a statement."

LJR Note: The newsroom of Confidencial, and other media outlets that operated at that location, has been under police occupation since December 2018.
