SANTA CRUZ, Bolivia—Accusations of narcotics smuggling, bribery, and collusion, have piled up against former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernandez, culminating in an arrest at his private residence in Tegucigalpa on Feb 15.
Following her husband’s apprehension, Hernandez’s wife, Ana Garcia, released a statement on Feb. 21 saying drug cartels were seeking revenge for their members extradited to the United States during Hernandez’s administration, which she asserts was the motive behind his sudden capture less than a month after leaving office.
Garcia’s accusation echoes Hernandez’s own comments from last November when he claimed drug cartels sought revenge on him by creating trouble with the U.S. justice system, driven by his self-proclaimed tough stance on narco-trafficking during his administration.
