Honduras to Investigate
Situation of Illegal
Prisoners in USA
Honduras will
investigate the
conditions that illegal
people face in US
prisons, according to a
National Congress
request, official
sources reported.
Several deported people
denounced the inhuman
treatment received in US
land, and motivated
Unificacion Democratica
Deputy Tomas Andino to
present a motion in this
respect.
Testimonials gathered by
the legislator coincide
in saying that male and
female children and
elderly people,
prisoners in the United
States, sleep for months
on the floor, with their
feet and hands chained.
The US authorities take
away the children of the
detained women to give
them in adoption when
they are returned to
Honduras, Andino
explained.
According to the
congressman's request,
the government will lead
the investigation about
violation of the
immigrants' human rights
and a monthly report
presentation to the
legislator.
El Heraldo daily said
the proposal includes
giving economic and
legal support to the
Hondurans that need it. |
