Committee of the Families of the Disappeared in Honduras
(COFADEH) Report
General information
The population continues to protest and demand transparency around the
counting of votes; to date there have been 118 demonstrations all throughout
the country, an average of 38 of which have been repressed by teargas and live
ammunition. In the face of the use and abuse of tear gas and the use of physical
force by State security bodies against the civil population that is exercising its
right to peaceful demonstration, direct consequences have been registered
across the population that inhales the gas, at least two suffered convulsions and
severe poisoning that required hospitalization. The use of teargas has not only
affected protesters, but also bystanders and residents from the neighborhoods
and residential areas in or near the site of the protests, seriously affecting the
rights to health and life.
