Edgar Lopez Bertrand, one of the most influential ministers in El Salvador, has been jailed in Houston while awaiting a hearing in federal district court today on charges of falsifying information on a passport application.


Lopez Bertrand, 65, was detained Monday after arriving at Bush Intercontinental Airport while in transit to Israel. His case has become front-page news in El Salvador, where he heads a church as well as a TV network and radio station.
