Police and military presence doubled in Brazilian embassy and repress media





Diario Tiempo, 10 December 2009.

Uncertainty and confusion generated information that was learned yesterday through various media radio and television that deposed President Manuel Zelaya Rosales, would come under a safe conduct into exile in Mexico, with his wife, Xiomara Zelaya and her children and Xiomara Hortensia José Manuel Zelaya Castro. 

From early afternoon it was reported that Mexican diplomats arrived at the Honduran Foreign Ministry's request for Zelaya Rosales pass and the departure of family members. 

From 5:00 in the afternoon the security measures were intensified military and police outside the Brazilian embassy, where dozens of heavily armed troops with body armor and took their positions, to protect the alleged departure of Zelaya Rosales. 

Meanwhile, the president explained by Radio Globo, Channel 36 and the Venezuelan television network Telesur, he could not confirm his departure. 

By transcending the news of the alleged departure into exile of President Zelaya Rosales, the various television networks began their live broadcasts where they were backed away by police because it did not allow much closer to the Brazilian embassy. 

Minutes later showed up dozens of supporters of the ousted president, who, shouting and waving flags of the Liberal Party repeatedly clamored for their leader and in unison "We want to Mel, Mel Zelaya holding" as police kept watch on close. 

Since last 21 September, the deposed President Manuel Zelaya Rosales is a guest at the Embassy of Brazil with his wife, Xiomara Castro, and other supporters. 

Police repelled back to the media, especially journalists from Channel 11, The Sign of the Nation, who made their live broadcasts.
