The cast of 'Riverdale' is pleading for the life of their showrunner's father and other political activists (toofab)
Over on the Justice for Francisco petition page, Roberto further details what he says has happened to his 77-year-old father, saying he was stopped at the border of Nicaragua and Costa Rica, falsely accused and detained with more than 35 other political prisoners.
Over the summer, the U.S. State Department began restricting visas to several Nicaraguan politicians over the arrests of many political activists by the government under President Daniel Ortega, including seven presidential candidates, per NBC News. "Because the fans are a part of our family, too. And we’re imploring you to use your voices to put pressure on the global community and rectify this miscarriage of justice," says the cast."Not just for Francisco, but for any political leader who’s put their lives on the line to make this world a better place."
They concluded their plea with the message,"Make your voices heard and help right this terrible injustice."
