Honduras urged to act as journalist killings go unpunished
Original: Most killings of journalists in Honduras remain unpunished, human rights commission says
Honduras' human rights commission says most killings of journalists in the country remain unpunished, renewing concerns over impunity for violence against members of the press. Rights groups and press freedom advocates have long pressed Honduran authorities to investigate and prosecute those responsible. The findings add to regional criticism of weak protections for reporters in Central America.
Why now: The national human rights institution has publicly highlighted ongoing impunity for murders of journalists, drawing fresh attention to press freedom in Honduras.
