Police guilty of killing activists

A COURT in Honduras has found four policemen guilty in the 2006 killings of two environmentalists.

Environmental groups have long demanded justice in the case of activists Heraldo Zuniga and Roger Ivan Murillo Cartagena. The two were fatally shot on December 20, 2006, in Olancho province, where they led opposition to widespread logging.

A provincial tribunal declared the four officers guilty of having shot the two activists to death.
