Two-time Honduran dictator Oswaldo López Arellano dies a free man http://ww4report.com/node/8647

As president, López Arellano oversaw Honduras' short but bloody war with El Salvador in 1969, dubbed the "Football War" because it was sparked by stadium violence in El Salvador-Honduras World Cup play-offs. Thousands died in the brief conflict. But his political and military career ended in April 1975, when he was overthrown in yet another coup after the "Bananagate" scandal, in which it was revealed that he had accepted a $2.5 million bribe from US banana company United Brands to reduce an export tax.
