On state TV, Appeals Court Justice Ernesto Rodríguez Mejía said Wednesday the 94 Nicaraguans were declared traitors. Rodríguez Mejía did not say whether the Nicaraguans were tried, but he said they were now"fugitives of the law," sentenced to a civil death — losing all of their rights, their property and their citizenship for life.
The list includes human rights defenders, journalists and two of Nicaragua's most prominent writers — the poet Gioconda Belli and novelist Sergio Ramírez.This comes just days after Nicaragua. They were put on a plane to the United States and stripped of their citizenship, under a new law that seeks to overwrite a constitutional ban on denationalization.
Analysts say this marks a deepening authoritarianism in Nicaragua. Since popular protests erupted in 2018, President Daniel Ortega has consolidated his power.
