Honduran Atty.

- BY MARLON GONZÁLEZ

Gen. Johel Zelaya said this week that he had ordered Honduran authorities and asked Interpol to execute a 2023 arrest order for former President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who has been pardoned by President Trump.Hernandez was released from U.S. federal prison last week after being pardoned. He had been sentenced last year to 45 years in prison for helping move tons of cocaine to the United States.

He went from supposed U.S. ally in the war on drugs to the subject of a U.S. extradition request shortly after he left office in 2022. He was detained and sent to the U.S. by current President Xiomara Castro of the social democratic Libre party.

On Monday, Zelaya included a photo of the two-year-old order signed by a Supreme Court magistrate for alleged fraud and money laundering charges. The order says that it must be executed “in the case that the accused is freed by United States authorities.”
