Signs of State Terrorism in Honduras

The authorities of the Public Ministry are concerned about the allegation that there exist clear signs of State terrorism.

The expert on security issues, Mario Berrios, warned that the threats, kidnappings, assassinations, and in the coming days, monitoring of persons’ activities, and even detonations are clear signs of a policy of state terrorism and left terrorism.

This week, the president of Congress, Roberto Micheletti, is reportedly facing threats of death.

Same complaint made the Principal Prosecutor, Rosa Miranda, who asked before the Administrative Court to suspend the June survey. She warned that she has received threatening calls.

The judge of this court, Jorge Zelaya, also reported being subjected to threats, like the principal prosecutor, Luis Rubí.

In the case of Micheletti, Miranda and Rubi, they have showed their position on the illegality of the June survey, the fourth ballot box, stating that they are on the side of upholding the Constitution and the rule of law.

As regards to judge Zelaya, he admitted the application filed by the MP against the Decree PCM-005-2009 and the next week he must decide whether or not to suspend the contested measure, ie the survey.

Micheletti even lost confidence in the officials of the Ministry of Security who guard him. He holds the Executive branch responsible for any damage to his body that may happen to him.

Same distrust displayed the National Commissioner of Human Rights, Ramón Custodio.

Similar threats have denounced journalists of various media outlets who have manifested against the destruction of the current Constitution. In recent months, two journalists have been kidnapped, Bernardo Rivera and Andres Torres, whose whereabouts are still unknown.

“I would give him much credit, even when it may not be accurate at the extent that he does, but I give much credit, not only to what he states, but to public complaints made by many public officials and journalists, that is, that this scenario is being presented in Honduras for a while, not just yesterday, and leads to believe that we have signs, signs of terrorism in Honduras,” said Mario Berríos.
