Instan a Honduras a aprobar una ley para fortalecer la búsqueda de personas desaparecidas

**Honduran Human Rights Body and Red Cross Urge Law to Strengthen Search for Missing Persons**

*September 3, 2026 – Tegucigalpa, Honduras*

The Honduran National Human Rights Commissioner (Conadeh) and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) called on the Honduran government to enact a new law aimed at intensifying the search for missing persons. The request was made on Thursday, 3 September 2026, and was reported by the Honduran news outlet *Hondudiario*.

Conadeh and the ICRC noted that disappearances are not limited to incidents from past decades; they continue to occur in Honduras today. The proposed legislation would strengthen the mechanisms for locating missing individuals and would include the creation of a new system—details of which were not specified in the brief.

The call follows ongoing concerns about the lack of a coordinated national strategy for addressing disappearances. Both organizations emphasized the need for a legal framework that would facilitate timely investigations, support families, and improve accountability.

The Honduran government has not yet responded to the request.
