Precautionary Measures Granted

Resolution No. 3/26
PM 1846-25 - Huascar González Rodríguez, Nicaragua

On January 10, 2026, the IACHR granted precautionary measures in favor of Huascar González Rodríguez, after considering that he is in a serious and urgent situation presenting a risk of irreparable harm to his rights in Nicaragua. It was alleged that the beneficiary, who is a lawyer and notary, was detained on October 7, 2025, and since then there has been no official information about him. Since his detention, his family members have not been informed of the charges against him or the reason for his detention; they have not been able to see him or receive information about his situation and are completely unaware of his physical and mental health and where he is being held. The Commission also noted that the State did not provide any information regarding the measures taken to address the beneficiary’s risk and locate him. In accordance with Article 25 of the Rules of Procedure, the Commission requests that Nicaragua:

  1. adopt the necessary measures to determine the situation and whereabouts of the beneficiary, in order to protect his rights to life and personal integrity;
  2. detail whether the beneficiary is in the custody of the State, the circumstances, and his detention conditions. In particular, disclose the place of his detention, and allow access to his legal representatives and family; and
  3. report on the actions taken to investigate the alleged facts that led to the adoption of this resolution, so as to prevent such events from reoccurring.
