During a police check, 15 Haitians (men, women and children) who were traveling clandestinely in a white minibus on Honduran territory were intercepted on the CA-5 Norte highway near Amarateca (Central District).

The driver of the minubus was arrested for investigation, accused of smuggling migrants.

Since the beginning of the year 2021 more than 2,000 foreigners, not many Haitians, have been arrested and detained for having transited illegally through Honduras.
