Tininiska Rivera, daughter of Indigenous leader Brooklyn Rivera Bryan, rejected a recent statement issued by the Ortega regime regarding her father\u2019s health, arguing that it \u201ccontains false information about his health condition and the conditions of his detention\u201d as a political prisoner.<\/p>\n

According to a statement by Tininiska Rivera, published on the afternoon of May 27, 2026, the Miskito leader was abducted from his home while in fully sound physical condition, contradicting the arguments the dictatorship is attempting to make regarding alleged preexisting illnesses affecting Brooklyn Rivera. <\/p>\n

On the morning of May 27, the Interior Ministry (Mint) released a statement and photographs showing Brooklyn Rivera extremely emaciated<\/a> and confined to a hospital bed. <\/p>\n

According to the regime, the Indigenous leader\u2019s condition \u201cis critical, requiring mechanical ventilation through a tracheostomy and intravenous feeding.\u201d It also stated that he is suffering from multiple organ failure, cirrhosis of the liver, and an active lung infection caused by resistant bacteria. <\/p>\n

Rivera\u2019s daughter emphasized that \u201cthe day they took my father, on September 29, 2023, he left his home in optimal health conditions, walking and fully able to care for himself. Therefore, the regime cannot now attempt to blame preexisting conditions for the physical deterioration of a man who has remained in state custody for nearly three years.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI hold the Sandinista regime of Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo directly responsible,\u201d she continued, \u201calong with all those complicit, for the deterioration and harm caused to my father\u2019s life, health, and physical and psychological integrity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

She Denies Family Visits<\/p>\n

The dictatorship claimed that Brooklyn Rivera has received visits every two weeks from \u201chis son, Wailandin Rivera Sol\u00f3rzano.\u201d However, Tininiska maintains that \u201csince his abduction and enforced disappearance, no family member has been allowed to visit him.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cThe statement and photographs released by the regime only demonstrate the undignified, inhuman, and degrading conditions in which my father is being held, providing evidence of blatant violations of his fundamental rights,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

\u201cFar from bringing reassurance, the images reveal the severe physical deterioration of a 73-year-old man under the total control of the Ortega-Murillo dictatorship,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n

Given her father\u2019s condition, Tininiska Rivera demands:<\/p>\n

The immediate and unconditional release of my father, Brooklyn Rivera.<\/p>\n

Independent and verifiable proof of life.<\/p>\n

Immediate access for family members, lawyers, and independent doctors.<\/p>\n

From the international community and human rights organizations, as an urgent humanitarian measure, the immediate transfer of my father to a country where he can receive independent, specialized medical care free from state control.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tininiska Rivera, daughter of Indigenous leader Brooklyn Rivera Bryan, rejected a recent statement issued by the Ortega regime…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":246110,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[98,100,99,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-246109","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=246109"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246109\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/246110"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=246109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=246109"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=246109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
