Honduras: resistance remobilizes in response to state terror http://www.ww4report.com/node/8513
several thousand marched in Tegucigalpa to demand an end to the escalation of repression, and against the neoliberal policies of the new government. The FNRP, a broad alliance of social and political forces that emerged hours after the coup d'etat of last June 28, called the march, which began at the National Pedagogical University and ended in a rally against the National Autonomous University (UNAH).
The university has been occupied by its workers since Feb. 23, when they began a strike demanding wage increases. In a speech, FNRP general coordinator Juan Barahona demanded the release of 15 university union leaders, who were arrested ahead of the march on charges of sedition and usurpation of power
