Costa Ricans Protest Micheletti’s Visit to San Jose


HAVANA, Cuba, Jul 9 (acn) Several Costa Rican organizations repudiated
the presence today in the capital San Jose of Roberto Micheletti, leader
of the de facto regime in Honduras, who is taking part of a mediation
process coordinated by President Oscar Arias.

Sonia Soliz, from the Frente Amplio organization, said that Micheletti
is not welcomed in Costa Rica “because he is a dictator and in this
country the people don’t welcome him”, Prensa Latina news agency
reported.

The Peace and Justice Service, and the Center for Justice and
International Law called a vigil near Oscar Arias’ house to protest
protest the coup in Honduras.

The Costa Rican President’s house is the venue of the mediation, which
is also being attended by a delegation from the Honduran constitutional
government, headed by President Manuel Zelaya. The initiative is aimed
at finding a way out of the crisis that stemmed from the June 28th
military coup that broke institutional order in the Central American
nation.

Despite the large police deployment, demonstrators plan to get as
close as possible to the meeting place in order to condemn the human
rights violations by the de facto regime headed by Micheletti.

According to information collected by humanitarian organizations, four
extra judiciary executions have taken place in Honduras along with the
murder of citizen Isis Obed Murillo at the Toncotin Airport on Sunday,
while President Zelaya unsuccessfully attempted to return to his country.

1. Hooray for Costa Rica's citizens. Hope it's really unpleasant for Pinochetti.

What a shame learning about the additional murders. Hope the police will come to their senses and walk away from this great crime.
