USA - Texas. Honduras' government protested Thursday's execution in Texas of Heliberto Chi.

Honduras' government protested Thursday's execution in Texas of Heliberto Chi. "We lament that in this case, the arrangements established by the Vienna Convention treaty were not followed," the Honduran government said in a statement. Honduras said it would take all necessary measures to protect the lives of the 12 U.S. prisoners in Honduran prisons after local media reported they could be attacked in revenge. The U.S. citizens are serving time for murder and drug trafficking offenses, the statement said. The Honduran government said it would repatriate Chi's remains next week.
