Urgent Call to the International Community
 Continued Assassination and Persecution of Resistencia

9 February EDGAR MARTÍNEZ , CAROL RIVERA, MELISSA RIVERA and JOHAN MARTÍNEZ were kidnapped and heavily beaten. Melissa was raped. Upon being released on February 12 they were told that there experience was a gesture from Pepe (current Honduran dictator)
3 February VANESSA YAMILETH ZEPEDA. 27 year old union leader, mother and nurse assassinated in Honduras
Through this medium we make an urgent call to international human rights organizations, social and political organizations, and people in solidarity with the Honduran pueblo to publically denounce the continued assassination, torture and repression of Honduran people. 
We place all responsibility upon the headed dictatorship of Pepe Lobo, Óscar Álvarez Security Minister, heads of the armed forces and the U.S government which continues to support the dictatorship.
Our work is to maintain the world aware of the struggle of the Honduran pueblo and the continued abuse of human rights committed by the civil- military dictatorship. Please support us by forwarding this newsletter or adding people to our mailing list:neciosfriends@gmail.com
