Plan to Evict Honduran Farmers Denounced http://www.insidecostarica.com/dailynews/2010/april/05/centralamerica100400503.htm

TEGUCIGALPA - Honduran security forces have prepared a plan to evict thousands of families from the occupied lands in northern Honduras, denounced the Movement of Unified Farmers of Aguan (MUCA).A report from that organization says that the eviction could be staged from Tuesday on. The army, police, and paramilitary hired by landowners would take part in the operation.MUCA held the government and businessmen Miguel Facusse, Rene Morales and Reinaldo Canales responsible for any violent action against the farmers.

About 3,000 families settled in the left bank of Aguan River since last December have been suffering eviction attempts, in which about four farmers have been killed.The Aguan conflict started in the 90's, when landowners usurped about 20,000 hectares by fraudulent means, denounced the Movement of Unified Farmers of Aguan.MUCA began the struggle for claiming those lands in 2001, forcing the government to sign an agreement in 2009 to create a tripartite commission and seek a solution to the problem.However, that accord was thwarted by the June 28 coup d'etat against the government of President Manuel Zelaya.
