- Kenya | Central Bank Warns Banknote Bouquets Could Land You in Jail

Kenya’s central bank warned Kenyans in the lead-up to Valentine’s Day that making bouquets out of colorful banknotes could be punished with a seven-year jail term. Officials argue that banknotes used in bouquets are often “folded, rolled, glued, stapled, pinned,” or otherwise damaged, which they say compromises their integrity, defaces the national currency, and increases the cost of replacing damaged notes.

- Nicaragua | Economic Control Sustains the Ortega-Murillo Regime

In an investigative series published by Confidencial, reporters identify economic control as one of the four central pillars sustaining the dictatorship of Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo. The regime increasingly relies on restrictive controls over civil society’s monetary flows to punish dissent. In 2023, the regime froze the bank accounts of institutions affiliated with the Catholic Church, which led a Nicaraguan seminary to cease operations. Since 2018, thousands of NGOs have been forced to close or had their assets seized for alleged financial violations. In Nicaragua, authoritarian financial control is a primary way to stifle civil society. FinancialFreedomReport.org
