@Uruk-Hai, I received a Nica update today, and it is not good. Apparently a new crackdown in Masaya started over the weekend and is spreading. Some info
here. The getting-too-close-for-comfort news is that one of Julio's friends as well as his barber have been "disappeared." From Julio's current employer: "Spoke with him today and he said older folks say this is worse than the 80s because at least during the war nobody was pulled from private houses, but now they’re watching FB and have paid “spies” in neighborhoods. It’s ####### unbelievable. We are supposed to talk on Thurs after he meets with another lawyer about getting a Costa Rican visa in order to do an interview in CR for his US tourist visa... or something like that? Didn’t make much sense to me, but at this point I have no idea what’s going on or what kind of processes should be followed. I do know he pulled both Santy and Norlan out of school, which worries me on so many levels.."
Not good. And nothing to do.
