Zelaya's Wife Calls For Continued Protest
Tegucigalpa - Wife of
ousted Honduran President Zelaya, Xiomara
Castro de Zelaya, Thursday called on
followers to continue marching in support of
her husband.
"We will manage to defeat them, let's keep
marching," she told local broadcaster Radio
Globe. "We are very clear that history is
allowing us to change our nation. We are
fighting for real change that comes from the
base of the people."
She accused those coupists of breaking the
peace and social tranquility Hondurans once
enjoyed and added that Zelaya would be back
within days.
Zelaya's family fled to the eastern
mountainous department of Olacho immediately
after the coup. Xiomara Castro soon began
organizing and leading rallies against the
post-coup government in Honduras' capital
city of Tegucigalpa and the eastern Honduran
department of El Paraiso.
