(MENAFN- Nam News Network) AT LEAST 24 DEAD AFTER DEADLY RIOTS IN NICARAGUA

AT LEAST 24 DEAD AFTER DEADLY RIOTS IN NICARAGUA. Students clash with riot police close to Nicaragua's Technical College during protests against government reforms to the Institute of Social Security (INSS) in Managua, Nicaragua, on April 23, 2018. Nicaragua's President Daniel Ortega on Sunday (Apr 22) agreed to scrap a highly-controversial pension reform that sparked four days of violence which left 24 people dead. After days of clashes between protesters and the security forces, the worst of his 11-year presidency, Ortega said he was revoking the reform during talks with business leaders.
