“Eran personas luchadoras”: El desgarrador entierro masivo en Rigores tras tragedia agraria

The community of Rigores, in Trujillo, Colón, is facing one of the saddest days in its history after the loss of 20 people in a violent incident that has shocked the entire country. In this report, we accompany family and friends at the Norberto Romero Cemetery, where 13 of the victims were laid to rest amidst scenes of profound grief. Key points of the report: Life stories: The burial of Edilson Gómez Euceda, a 30-year-old father and dedicated worker, stands out. He was the 13th victim to be laid to rest in the cemetery. Unprecedented family tragedy: The impact is devastating for the community, with nine members of the same family reportedly losing their lives; many of them lived just 20 or 30 meters apart. Victims identified: Among those buried are five people from the Las Uvas settlement (including three sisters) and five others from the Vida Nueva settlement in Rigores. Context of the conflict: This incident is a consequence of land disputes affecting the department of Colón, where it is estimated that thousands of acres of African palm plantations are in dispute without government resolution. Ongoing investigation: While funeral services are being held, specialized teams from the National Police continue to inspect the scene, and the presence of Military Police motorcycles has been reported to secure the area. This report is an urgent call to the authorities to stop the violence generated by agrarian problems in the Lower Aguán region. #Honduras #Trujillo #Colón #HondurasMassacre #Justice #Hardships #AfricanPalm #HondurasNews #NationalMourning #HondurasNews 🔴 To watch the full program, visit: www.televicentro.com.
