Share

Honduras said it will deport Steadman Fagoth Muller, a leader of Nicaraguan Indian rebels, and send him to Miami sometime this week, a government spokesman said. The spokesman, demanding anonymity, also threatened to “deport all leaders of armed clandestine organizations that are harassing Nicaragua or any other Central American nation from our territory . . . “ He included those from the Misura Indian coalition and the Nicaraguan Democratic Force, the major U.S.-backed contra group, “because they have compromised the neutrality of Honduras with their political activities.” Honduran police accuse Fagoth of violating immigration laws by making political statements.
