Honduran Interim Government Imposes
Indefinite Curfew
Tegucigalpa - Honduran interim
government imposed on Wednesday an
indefinite curfew starting at 5 p.m.
(2300GMT).
The government said in a communique that it
"will opportunely inform the time when it is
going to finish."
On Wednesday morning, the government
suspended the curfew for seven hours, for
the people to get supplies of food, fuel and
money.
The Hondurans crowded the supermarkets,
drugstores, gas stations and banks.
Government spokesman Roy Artur Leilors read
the communique saying "ambulance, medical
and nurse staff could be transit with the
authorization of the director from their
respective institution."
"We beg your patients, comprehension and
collaboration with these measures taken to
protect the tranquil life and goods of the
people," he added.
Since Monday when deposed President Manuel
Zelaya returned to Honduras, the interim
government decreed a curfew from 4 p.m.
(2200 GMT). |
