"This Wednesday [Sept. 28] Nicaraguan authorities prevented Mauricio Madrigal, news director of Channel 10, from leaving the country. He said he was heading to Miami for a work meeting.

Madrigal, who went to the public prosecutor on June 29 for a money laundering case for which the NGO Fundación Violeta Barrios de Chamorro is being investigated, told journalists that immigration agents withheld his passport at the International Airport of Managua 'Augusto C. Sandino' as he was getting ready to board the plane."
