International criticism of Nicaragua crackdown grows
June 22, 2021 GMT
MANAGUA, Nicaragua (AP) International criticism of Nicaragua’s government grew on Tuesday after another night of arrests in Managua. Fifty-nine countries at the United Nations Human Rights Council signed onto a statement expressing concern over arbitrary arrests and the restriction of fundamental rights.
Michelle Bachelet, U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, said that since her last report on the situation in Nicaragua in February, “my office has observed a worrisome and rapid deterioration in the human rights situation.”
“This makes more distant the possibility that Nicaraguans are able to fully exercise their political rights in the Nov. 7 elections,” said Bachelet.
