Journalists

Press-freedom group C-Libre is organizing a network of relatives of murdered and disappeared journalists and media workers in Honduras to seek memory, truth, and justice through collective action and mutual support.

Honduras's Appellate Criminal Court declared inadmissible an amparo (constitutional protection) appeal by retired general Roosevelt Hernández, who faces charges of inciting discrimination and violating fundamental rights linked to military social-media posts targeting journalists; the case now moves to the Constitutional Court and a preliminary hearing is set for September 14.

Honduras saw 235 alerts of attacks on journalists, communicators, and human rights defenders during 2024–2025, with a 19.6% spike in 2025 during the electoral period; C-Libre documents 11 murders, an 86.6% impunity rate, and state actors responsible for over half of all incidents.
