Six female prisoners murdered by inmates in Honduras

Six women were murdered and two more were injured by alleged gang members at a women’s prison near the Honduran capital Tegucigalpa, the National Penitentiary Institute said on Sunday.

 

The Killers broke through gates and the roof of a building at the women’s prison in Tamara. When they gained entrance into the prison, they went to the gymnasium where six prisoners were staying and murdered them, said the INP.

 

One prisoner had earlier caused a diversion by starting a fire in a dormitory where two inmates quarantined over the coronavirus pandemic were sleeping, in a building housing 1,300 prisoners.

 

Firefighters put out the fire but two women were injured.

Security forces “reestablished order and control” before beginning an investigation, INP said.

 

Some inmates published audio recordings on social media blaming gang members.

 

The gang members entered “the nursery, they don’t even respect children because they say they’re MS-13,” one woman said, referring to the Mara Salvatrucha criminal gang that is active in North and Central America.

 

“When they want to they come and throw stones at us and tell us they’re going to kill us, that they’re going to set fire to us. We’re tired and the director does nothing,” added the woman.

 

The president of the Prisoners’ Association, Delma Ordonez, has complained to authorities that coronavirus quarantine has provoked psychological problems among inmates, Gulf News reports.
