Nicaragua Expels U.S. Man Accused of Kidnapping His Kids

Managua - Nicaragua deported an American man wanted in his own country for having absconded to Central America with his three young children, the U.S. Embassy in Managua said.

David Matusiewicz and his mother, Lenore Matusiewicz, had been sought for more than a year for having abducted Laura, Leigh and Karen.

The apprehension of the fugitives was a joint effort of security officials at the U.S. Embassy and Nicaraguan police, who tracked Matusiewicz, his mother and the girls to a home on the outskirts of the city of Masaya.

U.S. diplomats made the necessary arrangements with Nicaraguan police and immigration authorities to return the three girls to their mother, who has legal custody of them.

In the last 19 months, agents with the State Department’s Diplomatic Security Service followed clues provided by the U.S. Marshals Service regarding the fugitives.

Matusiewicz was deported to the United States, where he is facing kidnapping and bank fraud charges, according to the statement, which did not specify if Lenore Matusiewicz was also sent to the United States. EFE
