ROME – On Wednesday the Jesuit-run University of Central America (UCA) in Nicaragua issued a statement condemning a government decree confiscating all of its properties and assets and calling it a “center of terrorism”, saying the allegations are baseless and violate academic freedom.
In an August 16 statement, the Central American province of the Society of Jesus, based in San Salvador, said the UCA received an official judicial order on Tuesday morning notifying it that its property, buildings, and bank accounts were being seized.
