Former Nicaraguan presidential candidate and political prisoner Félix Maradiaga recently returned to exile in Miami after being released by the Ortega dictatorship. He spoke to SA¹ú¼Ê´«Ä±'s Tim Padgett about his 'torture' behind bars, the reunion with his family and his renewed resolve to fight.

Nicaraguan opposition leader Félix Maradiaga spent 20 months in prison for challenging dictator Daniel Ortega. He's 'even more resolved' to see democracy restored.

Daniel Ortega is still holding hundreds of political prisoners — including candidates who challenged him last year — and is still defying U.S. and E.U. sanctions.
