TEGUCIGALPA (Reuters) – Former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez will be extradited to the United States next week, Honduran Security Minister Ruben Sabillon said on Wednesday.
The Central American country’s Supreme Court last month authorized Hernandez’s extradition to face drug trafficking and firearms charges.
