(AI translated) Victor Ticay is originally from Nandarola, Nandaime, a municipality belonging to the city of Granada, south of Managua. Ticay is the youngest of nine brothers. With a lot of effort, he was able to cover his university studies by working from an early age, graduating in communication in 2015. He began working in 2014 at Action 10, where he provided information to the population about the facts and various social situations facing the people, becoming the voice of many victims of human rights violations. In April 2018, he began sharing on his social media posts about the burning of Indian corn, the social security reforms, and the 2018 social protests. That's when the threats started. The first threats came via fake profiles on social media, telling him to shut up, and his wife was threatened if Ticay didn't. On several occasions, he was pursued by motorcycles and vehicles while working on his way home. At the time of his arrest, he worked as a correspondent for Channel 10, the most-watched television station in Nicaragua, from where he served Nicaraguan society with confirmed information in any field. He was one of the few journalists left in the country, considering the government's persecution and threats against this profession, which forced thousands of journalists into exile. On several occasions, Vice President Rosario Murillo has labeled journalists as "information terrorists" for allegedly spreading false information about President Daniel Ortega's administration. Ticay had become "a reference point for information for the people," to the point that when something happened, everyone looked to his digital platform. He provided coverage of the 2018 social protests and demonstrations, informing the population about the joint action of paramilitaries and police in armed attacks on civilians, and since then Ticay has been a victim of harassment and threats. On one occasion, Pedro Morales Moraga, who then worked for the Nandaime City Hall, rammed him with his pickup truck and threatened him with a firearm, calling him a liar. He went to file a complaint with the Police, who instead let him know that he could be subjected to detention, and hours after filing the complaint, he received several messages on his social media mocking and threatening him, despite this, he continued reporting. In 2020, due to the closure of news spaces, media outlets, and persecution of journalists, Ticay focused on covering religious, social, and cultural issues, and community journalism. He continued working at the channel but in the field of social and religious services; however, since 2021, the government has maintained an aggressive persecution campaign against the Catholic Church. He was detained on April 6, 2023, by plainclothes police officers, without a court order, and taken to the police station shirtless and handcuffed. When his wife arrived to ask about him, along with one of his nephews, they were detained at the station for three hours until Ticay's mother arrived, then they released his wife and nephew without telling them where Victor was. The trigger was that the journalist had recorded a day earlier, on April 5, the religious procession "La Reseña," when the Ortega-Murillo regime prohibited religious manifestations amid the persecution of Catholic Church priests, and for this, he was arbitrarily detained and not seen for a period of 3 months, which is why journalist organizations demanded that the Daniel Ortega government provide proof of life.
