JUST RELEASED
Adriana Sivori, correspondent for Telesur in Tegucigalpa has just been
released, along with her camera crew and three Associated Press
journalists who had been detained about half hour ago by military
forces in Honduras under orders of the dictatorship that illegally
took power yesterday in a coup d'etat that ousted constitutional
president Mel Zelaya. Sivori announced she, her crew and the AP
journalists were taken prisoner from their hotel rooms and forced into
a military caravan by army forces loyal to the dictatorship. They were
beaten and forcefully brought to immigration headquarters, most likely
to be detained and deported, in order to silence their reporting. But
due to the rapid response and pressure from different governments, the
OAS, the UN and other international actors, they have been released.
The journalists are denouncing human rights violations in Honduras
committed by the coup forces.
