A 15 April 2024 International Christian Concern feature on the Ortega Murillo government's campaign against the Catholic Church, naming that sixty five women's religious ministries were expelled from Nicaragua during 2022 and 2023 and six more were denied entry, alongside the cancellation of Catholic universities' and charities' legal status and the deportation of priests to the Vatican or the United States.

Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier
1
Reliability tier 2: a Christian advocacy organization's feature on persecution of the Catholic Church, informed but published by an interested advocacy body rather than a neutral or independent outlet. No stable url could be confirmed at the time of this record, a gap named here rather than guessed at.
Notes
A long established religious freedom monitoring and advocacy organization campaigning on behalf of persecuted Christians worldwide, an interested party rather than a neutral government or academic investigator, the same class already treated on this axis as Open Doors. Its specific, dated figures, ministries expelled and entry denials during a named two year window, are independently checkable against Nicaraguan government and Vatican statements and are not disputed by outside reporting. 1
