On July 5, a Sentencing court in Tegucigalpa convicted Roberto David Castillo Mejía for the murder of indigenous activist and environmentalist, Berta Cáceres. Castillo is a US-trained military intelligence officer and the former President of the dam company, DESA, that tried to build the Agua Zarca dam on the Gualcarque river. Berta Cáceres, along with COPINH and the communities of Rio Blanco, opposed the project and led a national and international campaign to stop it.This episode highlights the key points from the trial including the ways in which the criminal structure surrounding the Agua Zarca project was exposed in court. Testimony, Whatsapp chat messages, phone calls, and telephone antenna information were used to build the case against Castillo, and also revealed the involvement of DESA's executives and investors in plotting the murder as well.#JusticiaParaBerta #FaltaLosAtalasFor a complete, day-to-day summary of the trial in English, see: aquiabajo.com/blogFor the episode's show notes: hondurasnow.orgFollow us on Instagram: @HondurasNowSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/honduras-now-podcast/donations
