Octavio Ortega Arana, a leader of the farmers movement and longtime opponent of the proposed interoceanic canal in Nicaragua, died on Friday, June 20, 2025, at his home in the southern city of Rivas, while under \u201cconditional release,\u201d according to the Nicaraguan Farmer\u2019s Movement.<\/p>\n\n

The social leader prominence after choosing to confront the regime of Daniel Ortega, which had approved Law 840. Also known as the \u201cCanal Law,\u201d it granted a Chinese businessman with a murky background the concession to build an interoceanic canal across Nicaraguan territory.<\/a> <\/p>\n\n

Aside from clearing a dirt road in December 2014 and conducting studies\u2014many studies\u2014<\/a>the supposed construction project never actually began. What did begin was a farmers’ protest movement, sparked when families living along the canal\u2019s proposed route saw Chinese technicians, escorted by Nicaraguan Police, arrive to measure their land for forced purchases. <\/p>\n\n

The growing unrest first materialized in the formation of the National Council in Defense of Our Land, Lake, and Sovereignty, led by Octavio Ortega Arana. That organization later became the Farmers’ Movement, which went on to organize 99 protest marches against the regime and its effort to build the canal across small farmers’ land\u2026 and Ortega Arana was there through it all. <\/p>\n\n

Not even on his deathbed was Octavio Ortega left in peace<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

While expressing condolences to the family, the Farmer’s Movement also denounced that \u201cOctavio spent his final days harassed by the dictatorship and forced to appear at the Sandinista Police\u2019s departmental delegation to sign in daily.\u201d Police agents would even come to the home of the ailing activist to have him sign a check-in sheet.<\/p>\n\n

Octavio Ortega was imprisoned in December 2014 while protesting the announced start of the canal construction and was transferred to the infamous El Chipote prison in Managua, then located on Loma de Tiscapa.<\/p>\n\n

Press reports indicate that in his final days, Ortega Arana suffered from diabetes, which led to the amputation of a leg, as well as kidney disease, making his last days even more painful. Despite his declining health, the regime harassed him until virtually his final breath. <\/p>\n\n

The Farmer’s Movement denounced that \u201cthe regime ordered the family to bury him as quickly as possible, taking him straight to the municipal cemetery. We denounce these abuses and the disrespect for the dignity of Nicaraguan opposition members who are forced to check in with the Sandinista police every day and die as opponents,\u201d they stated, adding that families are forced to bury them immediately.<\/p>\n\n

Mobilized to Defend Their Land<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

In a December 2015 interview with CONFIDENCIAL<\/strong> during a meeting with campesino leaders in El Tule (R\u00edo San Juan), Octavio Ortega Arana spoke out against the decision by Hong Kong Nicaragua Development (HKND\u2014the company granted the canal concession) to delay the project another year.<\/a> In theory, construction was supposed to begin at the end of 2016. <\/p>\n\n

\u201cOur council concluded this is due to the 2016 election year. That\u2019s one of our thoughts on why the government doesn\u2019t want more protest marches,\u201d said the coordinator of the Farmer’s Movement. \u201cStrategically, they say the construction is delayed, and those of us on the pilgrimage in El Tule believe the government wants to demobilize us to stop the marches,\u201d he explained. <\/p>\n\n

But that did not happen.<\/p>\n\n

CONFIDENCIAL<\/strong> records show that on January 9, 2016, hundreds of peasants marched in the community of La Fonseca, in Nueva Guinea, vindicating their demand to repeal 840<\/a>. That was the 56th march led by the producers organized in the National Council for the Defense of the Land, Lake and Sovereignty, which also initiated the collection of signatures<\/a> to ask the Parliament to repeal the law. <\/p>\n\n

At the time, Octavio Ortega Arana explained that the farmers had collected two thousand signatures, most of them gathered in El Tule, R\u00edo San Juan, and La Fonseca\u2014the stronghold of the anti-canal protest. Two days later, the signature-gathering campaign would head deep into the South Caribbean region, specifically to the town of Punta Gorda. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
