- U.S. prosecutors are investigating Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, according to a new court filing, piling pressure on a leader who prosecutors have already accused of participation in the nation's bloody narcotics trade.
In a document filed Friday night in the Southern District of New York in the case of Geovanny Fuentes Ramirez, an alleged Honduran drugtrafficker, federal prosecutors said Hernandez himself was the target of an investigation, along with other "high-ranking officials."
They did not say what the investigation concerned. But in the filing they accused Hernandez, who has been president since 2014, of using Honduran law enforcement and military officials to protect drug traffickers as part of a plan "to use drug trafficking to help assert power and control in Honduras."
Last month, U.S. prosecutors said in a court filing related to the same case that Hernandez had by 2013 "accepted millions of dollars in drugtrafficking proceeds and, in exchange, promised drug traffickers protection from prosecutors, law enforcement, and (later) extradition to the United States."
The prosecutors said that assistance from the Honduran government in its investigations "has hardly been forthcoming," accusing the Honduran government of providing "limited records" and not honoring extradition requests for potential witnesses against the president.
The Honduran government did not respond to requests for comment. Hernandez has repeatedly denied any ties to drug cartels.
