Nicaragua Strips Citizenship from 135 Expelled Prisoners, Seizes Property

Government revokes nationality and confiscates assets of former prisoners deported to Guatemala, citing crimes against state sovereignty.

The 135 prisoners were released under a deal involving the U.S. and Guatemala, with no concessions made by the U.S.
Nicaragua's Supreme Court claims the individuals committed acts against the nation's independence and self-determination.
This action mirrors a previous release of 222 political prisoners to the U.S. last year, who were also stripped of their nationality.
The United Nations has condemned Nicaragua for severe human rights violations, including the recent events.
The released prisoners are temporarily in Guatemala and are expected to relocate to the U.S. with expedited refugee procedures.
