Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez
HONDURAN President Juan Orlando Hernandez has been accused of taking millions of dollars in bribes, according to a defendant in a drug-trafficking trial that opened in the United States on Monday.
Mr Hernandez denied the charge, insisting it is “100 per cent false and appears to be based on the lies of confessed criminals who seek revenge or to reduce their sentences.”
His accuser Geovanny Fuentes has pleaded “not guilty” to cocaine-smuggling charges. The 50-year-old, who was arrested in Miami last year, is also accused of weapons offences.
