Tegucigalpa. June 16, 2010. A wave of siege and harassment-mortal, in some cases, have been lived in recent days by several members of the National Front for Popular Resistance (FNRP) in Honduras, which endured armed attacks on their vehicles, attempted kidnappings , or murder, according to the complainants themselves.
The rushes of violence have increased consecutively, one after another, between June 10 and 15, in which, at least reported, two in one day took place, Thursday 10 and Saturday June 12, 2010. All the victims had suffered before verbal threats via cell phone and various acts of intimidation.
The pattern of events suggests a systematic action of special forces. The President of the Committee for the Defence of Human Rights (CODEH), Andrés Pavón, said that in Honduras there is a "Colombianization" [comparative form of violence in Colombia] promoted by para-business groups.
He said that in the cases of Carolina Pineda and Luis Baquedano to monitor vehicular movement and persecute them, "a chip could have been installed" inside their cars. And that, in the CODEH, "we have fully identified the ones who have attacked collaborators"of that organization.
He was firm in asserting that the "Secretary of Security is controlled by organized crime" and is supported by "money from governments like Spain." Yesterday they gave 45 million lempiras for local security project in the mayoral and NGOs, at a cost of up to 300 thousand each, according to the Interior and Justice Ministry.
On Tuesday 15 June, at night, the former Minister of the exiled president, Manuel Zelaya in the National Program for Sustainable Rural Development (PRONADERS), Luis Rolando Valenzuela Ulloa, was assassinated in a restaurant in San Pedro Sula, by businessman Carlos Alberto Yacamán Meza, fugitive, according to the police spokesman.
Although the police describe this and other assassinations as non-political, and in view they attempted to conceal the name of the perpetrator, the DGIC (General Directorate of Criminal Investigation) was already investigating Yacamán for "murder and threats" and links him to "situations complicated by illegal activities," revealed another policeman.
On Monday June 14, 2010, early in the morning, Sergio Armando Rivera Martínez, professor and vice president of the Center for Prevention, Treatment and Rehabilitation of Torture Victims and their Families (CPTRT), suffered an attempt of arbitrary detention by a man and a woman, guards of the Social Security Institute (IHSS), while he tried to transport the patient, Oscar Armando Padilla, to the Hospital Escuela.
Rivera complained to the Ecumenical Centre for Human Rights of CLAI, that a policeman, brought by two IHSS security agents tried to arrest him they confirmed answering the question of the police, whether he was in the Resistance. The agent intended to force him to "come with him" without any cause, for which Rivera was screaming to alarm that they were trying to take him who knows where.
This caused that the security group that harassed him called upon another policeman, who was not carrying his name plate, and announced to him that he was detained. And when he tried to get near him to "reduce me to impotence", a stranger woman asked the police to withdraw because they disturbed the peace of the hospital. Another officer, from the entrance," asked those who tried to kidnap me to leave, "he recounted.
On Sunday June 13, the young taxi driver, Oslin Obando Cáceres, disappeared. His family lost contact with him since 4:30 in the afternoon, and his taxi was found two hours later, abandoned in Los Cedros. The family fears for the life of Oslin, because three weeks ago a man threatened to kill the latter's father, Eliodoro Caceres, Coordinator of the FNRP in Tela, Atlantida, which he denounced to the Committee of Relatives of Detained and Disappeared in Honduras (COFADEH).
