Description

In the coming months the Honduran Congress will choose 15 new Supreme Court judges. A visiting international judicial delegation, however, warns that the selection process has been plagued with irregularities that could call the results into question. A government spokesperson has accused the commission of outside interference and trying to create a crisis in the justice system even though jurists say that democratic countries usually have no problem receiving international delegations. It is probable that an investigation focused on nullifying the process will now begin. Gerardo Torres reports from Central America for teleSUR.
