CWN Editor's Note: Bishop Rolando Alvarez, who has been imprisoned by Nicaragua’s government, is suffering mistreatment and possibly even torture, witnesses told a congressional hearing in Washington, DC.

At the congressional hearings, Rep. Chris Smith remarked that Bishop Alvarez is “an innocent man enduring unspeakable suffering.”
