The population of the Miskito Indians in Nicaragua was 200.000 men. women. and children. There are an estimated 45.000 still left in camps that have not been collected. considering all of them according to the Nicaraguans are insurgents and not collected. There is an additional 18.000 Miskito Indians in refugee camps in Honduras. We have the 25.000. the 12.000 in a second detention camp. the 18.000 in refugee camps in Honduras. the 45.000 still left in villages yet to be collected by the Nicaraguan Government who claim all these people are insurgents and fighting for the revolution. That leaves 100.000 Miskito Indians unaccounted for. I just wonder and I ask the gentleman from Georgia. where are the 100 thousand Miskito Indians that have seemingly disappeared from the face of the Earth in Nicaragua?
