Honduran Putschists Cut Demonstrator
Wages
Tegucigalpa - The de facto
regime in Honduras has tighten repressive
measures by announcing salary deductions for
workers taking part in marches against the
coup.
The junta that usurped power on June 28 sent
inspectors to schools, institutes and other
workplaces to verify that these deductions
to the demonstrators' salaries are
implemented.
The decision is to prevent employers of any
institution from paying total salaries to
those who leave their workplaces, said
President of the National Audit Office (TSC),
Moises Lopez.
The objective is to try to check the
marches, street blockades and other peaceful
demonstrations of the people against the
putschists, in demand for the return to
institutionality.
However, the de facto regime encourages
demonstrations in its favor and there are
businesses close to the putschists that pay
entire salaries to workers who stage them in
support of the dictatorship.
