(AI Translated) In October 2018, he was assaulted and threatened together with other young people by civilians dressed in plain clothes who were traveling on motorcycles and carrying firearms; they fired at them. On December 17, 2018, his house was raided by the police, and his father was taken to the police station and interrogated for approximately two hours about Max’s whereabouts. At the same time, all the houses of the AUN youth group were raided with a message left by the police to their parents: “that they write a letter apologizing to the country and to Vice President Rosario Murillo.” On March 16, 2019, he was detained along with more than 100 people and taken to the Judicial Assistance Directorate where he was placed in a cell with more than 20 people, his personal data were taken and he was photographed, then released. On February 10, 2020, he suffered persecution by civilian motorcyclists and by people traveling in a car, who fired firearms at the vehicle. In April 2020, the safe house where he was staying was subjected to surveillance and harassment by the police, forcing him to change residence continuously. On June 22, 2021, for three hours, several motorized individuals gave chase after he left, together with other AUN members, from a meeting that was under almost permanent surveillance by civilians traveling on motorcycles. On July 5, 2021, he was detained at approximately ten at night while he was in one of the houses he shared with other young people. During his detention, the police raided the house. Two days later, on July 7, the Public Ministry issued a statement informing that the Judiciary had approved a “judicial detention” for 90 days. The constitutional guarantees hearing was held in secret, in the early hours of the morning and without legal representation. He remained 57 days incommunicado, subjected to prolonged interrogations in the early hours and under threats; he was not allowed to go to “sunny yard” and was kept isolated together with his cellmate (another detained defender). The authorities repeatedly denied him food and allowed very few family visits, and when visits were granted they were under extreme surveillance and for a maximum of 30 minutes. During his imprisonment his mother died of multiple illnesses on September 17, 2021, and despite the procedures carried out to obtain a special permit so he could see his mother, it was not granted, nor was he allowed to attend her funeral rites. The authorities informed him of his mother’s death a month later. He was subjected to psychological torture and mistreatment from his entry into the judicial assistance cells until the last day when he was put on a bus without being told he was being expelled, until they arrived at the airport where a plane awaited him and took him together with another 221 political prisoners to the United States, where he now lives in exile.
