Nicaragua: We demand the immediate appearance and liberation of Yader Parajon!


On Tuesday 16 April 2019, the Nicaraguan police kidnapped young Yader Parajon from his home. Since then, we know nothing of his whereabouts.

Yader is an important student activist against the dictatorship of Daniel Ortega and his wife Rosario Murillo. He took part in the Caravan for South America of the Articulation of Social Movements.

The fact takes on greater gravity because Yaser’s brother, Jimmy Parajon, is one of over 500 murdered by Daniel Ortega’s regime.

The International Workers’ Unity-Fourth International (IWU-FI) demands the immediate appearance and release of Yader Parajon. We call to the broadest unity of action of all the sectors that claim to be democratic to conduct this urgent international solidarity call.

Immediate release of Yader Parajon! Stop Daniel Ortega’s criminal repression! Freedom to all political prisoners! Out with the dictatorship of Ortega-Murillo!
