Culture of Resistance in Honduras
Tegucigalpa - Artists in Honduras are expected to join
efforts on Saturday to support the long
popular resistance against the coup into its
35th consecutive day.
General coordinator of the National Front
against the Coup, Juan Barahona, announced
yesterday a political-cultural gathering for
today as an activity in defense of the
restitution of constitutional order.
The event will take place 48 hours after a
violent Army and police repression against a
peaceful march in the outskirts of the
capital, resulting in dozens of people
wounded and detained.
Two people continue in hospital: Profesor
Roger Vallejo, with a serious bullet wound
in his head, and presidential candidate
Carlos H. Reyes, with injuries in his head
and a broken or fractured arm.
Popular leaders said in a gathering held
yesterday after a march through several
areas of the capital that the de facto
government installed on June 28 is wrong by
thinking that severe repression is going to
frighten the people. |
