Journalists and Social Communicators in Honduras receive death threats through their cellphones

DINA MEZA
Other social communicators have also been victims of threats
Threats against journalists continued this weekend, through calls on their cell phones. Delia Mejia who hosts the live show Morazán Vive, in La Voz del Occidente, a station that broadcasts from Santa Rosa de Copan, reported to the Committee of Relatives of Detained and Disappeared in Honduras, COFADEH, that since last year she receives death threats by phone and on Monday they reactivated them by sending a death threat against a journalist.

Her cell phone is 9992 - 6505, which was advertised as a contact point for the resistance program, the National Resistance Front, which airs from Monday to Sunday on Radio Globo and where they advertise the activities of this organization and spreads the actions of Honduran people on the road to a refoundation of Honduras.
Mejia reported that she participated in the II Meeting for Refoundation of Honduras, which took place from March 12 to 14 in La Esperanza, Intibucá, so she switched off her device and reactivated it until four o'clock, which already had a voicemail with a death threat against journalist Felix Molina, who leads the program of the Resistance.
"Tell Felix Molina to come and speak to the Juticalpa Resistance so we can shut his mouth," that means, possibly through an attempt against his life.
Mejia explained that it was obvious that the man who left the message covered his mouth to prevent his voice from being identified, as when using a handkerchief to avoid sensing the clarity and tone of voice.
Molina complained on air on Sunday March 14 , when transmitting the program Resistance from La Esperanza, Intibucá, that he no longer wanted to continue receiving threats, that he expected contributions from listeners, referring to threatening messages that he was probably getting on his cell phone already explained above .
On Monday March 15 she continued to receive strange calls, at least four, and when she returned one of them to the phone number from which it was made, a woman answered and said she had never called and that she lives in another part of the country, according to what Mejia denounced to COFADEH.
Other social communicators have also been victims of threats, such is the case of Salomon Orellana and Misael Carcamo, who have received death threats via phone and mensajitos(text messages). Both run a radio program called "Dando en el Clavo," (Hitting the Nail)which airs on Radio Católica "Santa Rosa", also in Santa Rosa de Copan, every Saturday from 8:00 to 10:00. The program is aimed at promoting democratic values and respect for human rights. Of course, both people have publicly demonstrated against the coup.
