Honduras goes against Trump, issues international arrest warrant against
against former president pardoned for drug-trafficking
The Honduran government is going against President Donald Trump, issuing an international arrest warrant against former president Juan Orlando Hernandez, who he pardoned last week for drug-trafficking charges.
"We have been lacerated by the tentacles of corruption and by the criminal networks that have deeply marked the life of our country," said Honduran attorney general Johel Antonio Zelaya Alvarez in a social media post. He has also sought the help of Interpol.
Hernandez was released from prison last week after being pardoned by Trump. He was convicted in June 2024 York federal court after being found guilty of drug and gun trafficking charges. He was also required to pay a $8 million fine.
His whereabouts since are unknown, with his wife telling The Washington Post that he was in a "safe place" in the U.S. for his security. However, she added, he is "very eager to get in touch with the Honduran people." His wife and daughters remain in Honduras.
