A new and sad news from Honduras. Advocates and families of the disappeared. He was 59. Was a teacher in a school and was hit by a tear gas canister fired directly to those who were demonstrating for the 3rd consecutive day. Another
"curiosity": The current security minister is the nephew of former manager of a death squad in the eighties, head away with hundreds of disappearances and torture.
A big hug.

With deep regret , we inform the national and international community's partner has died Ilsy Ivania Velásquez Rodríguez, sister of Manfredo Velásquez Rodríguez missing prisoner.
Ilsy was a tireless fighter and his family by the novelty and justice in the disappearance occurred in our country enforced under the doctrine of national security in the eighties. The disappearance of Manfredo Velásquez was the first case of human rights violations known to the Court of Human Rights, so that the State of Honduras was convicted. A date has not complied with resolution to investigate and punish those responsible.
Relatives of the missing, we are struck again by the death of a productive member of our enforcement policy implemented by the current regime.
