Honduras: Paramilitaries against Garifunas

Not only removed from their land, also want to kill them.
A serious warning has been launched against the paramilitary siege that mobilized in motorcycles and 4 x 4 vehicles, with weapons of war, and that could be a massacre to the peaceful inhabitants Garifuna (mixed ethnic group descendant of Africans, Carib and Arawak) that resist against dispossession of their ancestral territories.
 
It is the case of six cooperatives Garifunas that having legally recovered their lands, and that they have been invaded by landowners with the complicity of Cesar Ham, Minister of the National Agrarian Institute of Honduras, living besieged by paramilitaries that in numerous groups are mobilized with the official complicity.

Therefore, farmers are calling to the national and international community, and in particular to the human rights bodies to decide whether sending messages to the State of Honduras, to stop what could be a new bloodbath.

Similarly they request the respective collaboration  to the media to disseminate this urgent news. They blame the regime landowner military, led by Porfirio Lobo Sosa about the future of the garifunas, on what will be the Organization Fraternal Negra Hondureña OFRANEH.
