Bishop Rolando Álvarez is under house arrest in Nicaragua’s capital Managua after being detained by police August 19 in a pre-dawn raid.
Bishop Álvarez had been confined to his residence for two weeks along with five priests, a seminarian, and a cameraman of a religious television channel. The priests and cameraman have reportedly been put in prison in the capital now, while the Bishop is under house arrest. A police statement said authorities had been waiting for several days for what they called a “positive communication” from the Diocese of Matagalpa, which had not been forthcoming. No formal charges have been announced.
