Reform treasurer ‘met sanctioned individuals on Nicaragua trip’
Nick Candy met several internationally sanctioned figures, including the son of Nicaragua’s co-president, while leading a gold-mining delegation, according to The Times.
- A mining delegation led by Candy last week attended meetings about a gold mining project in Nicaragua, meeting several sanctioned figures, reports say.
- Political connections stretch back to Rosario Murillo, Nicaragua co-president, who described Mr Candy as 'brother' and 'comrade' during his visit last week.
- Among those he met was Laureano Facundo Ortega Murillo, son of Nicaragua's co-presidents, but reports say he did not meet Rosario Murillo or Daniel Ortega.
- Reform has been approached for comment following reports of the trip, while commentators criticised the visit, arguing Reform UK leaders are 'incapable of acting in the national interest'.
- Nick Candy, billionaire property tycoon, split from Holly Valance last year after 13 years of marriage, a recent change to his public profile.
