Today, 12 international and national expert organizations in the defense of the rule of law, due process, and human rights sent a letter to Óscar Chinchilla, Attorney General of Honduras, denouncing numerous irregularities in the investigation of the assassination of Berta Cáceres on March 2, 2016.

“This situation generates inequality for the family of Berta Cáceres who is seeking justice, and it lays the groundwork for impunity given that the irregularities identified could be grounds for dismissal of the case due to non-compliance with judicial orders and procedural errors,” say the organizations.
