Hondurans expelled by US denounce separation from children as security forces pressure gangs
Hondurans deported from the US are alleging that authorities separated them from their children; the situation unfolds amid ongoing control of large areas by criminal groups despite a state of emergen
Internal intelligence documents indicate that 36% of those detained under Honduras' state of emergency were not profiled as criminals beforehand, raising concerns about rights violations while powerful gangs and drug trafficking groups continue to control extensive territories in one of Central America’s most violent countries. Some 400 Hondurans expelled by the US are publicly denouncing that they were not allowed to take their children with them and are demanding government assistance to reunite their families. These developments occur against a backdrop of persistent large‑scale criminal activity, including gang territorial control and drug trafficking, which remain prevalent despite the deployment of the army in the streets and the government’s security crackdown.
