Honduras: Suspect Arrested in Killing of COPINH Activist Nelson García
----------------------------------------------------------------------

And Honduran authorities say they have arrested a suspect in the killing
of Nelson García, an activist and colleague of assassinated
environmentalist Berta Cáceres. Earlier this month, less than two weeks
after Cáceres was gunned down at her home, García was shot to death
after returning home from helping indigenous people displaced in a mass
eviction by Honduran security forces. He was a member of COPINH, the
indigenous organization co-founded by Berta Cáceres. The suspect in
García's murder has been identified as Didier Enrique "Electric"
Ramírez.
