ARTICLE SNIPPET: "TEGUCIGALPA, HONDURAS (ANS) -- Carlos Hernandez, president of the Association for a More Just Society in Honduras, is in hiding following a death threat immediately after the killing of well-known lawyer Dionisio Díaz García who was often called the “lawyer for the poor.”

Hernandez of the Association for a More Just Society received the death threat immediately after his associate, attorney Dionisio Diaz Garcia, was shot to death on his way to court on Monday, December 4th, Steve Geurink of Worldwide Christian Schools told Mission Network News.
Dionisio Díaz García was shot to death in his pickup truck while driving to court by two masked gunmen on a motorcycle. The gunmen shot Díaz in the head and chest from close range. This murder was the first time in years that a human rights advocate has been murdered in Tegucigalpa.

According to Mission Network News, both men have ties to the ministry of Worldwide Christian Schools (WCS) in Honduras."
