Hondurans for Zelaya, Democracy

TEGUCIGALPA, July 1 (PL). — The Honduras Popular Resistance Front affirmed on Wednesday continued massive protests rejecting the military coup and demanding President Manuel Zelaya's return.

The leaders of the organization, made up of trade unions and youth, farmer, women, and human rights groups, announced they will gather near the presidential residence after some 10,000 people were there yesterday, trade union leaders said.

The demonstration took place 24 hours after hundreds of police agents and military violently moved away demonstrators there since last Sunday.

Today is the third day of a general strike summoned by those organizations until democratic institutionality is restored in the country, and Zelaya returns to the presidency.
