Muñoz, expelled from El Salvador, orchestrated the August 4, 1851, uprising in León, Nicaragua, overthrowing José Laureano Pineda. Initially, Muñoz became Minister of War, but the plan for a theocratic-military government shifted. Facing charges, Muñoz surrendered when Honduras and Granada forces besieged León, securing a general amnesty except for him and seven military leaders. The government later extended amnesty to all, ending the revolt.^[2]
