“If the police didn’t kill my son, why are they hounding me?”

 

Murdered in Jinotepe, July 8, 2018

Faber Antonio López Vivas, the son of Fátima Belarmina Vivas Torres, had joined the police force in 2014. He was assigned to a delegation in El Rama, but was reassigned to the Special Police Operations Division (DOEP) to receive a course on canine techniques in Managua. He had been taking the course for six months but was placed on street duty to repress the population following the protests on April 18. He did not agree with the police actions.

“If the police didn’t kill my son, then why are they hounding me?” asks doña Fátima. After reporting the death of her son, she was harassed, threatened, and forced to flee the country.
