Honduras: Allegations of violence by members of the company Dinant during an eviction; the company responded

On 9 January 2023, members of the police and guards from the company Dinant allegedly attempted to evict 190 families that make up the El Chile Agricultural Cooperative. According to information published by the Women Human Rights Defender Network in Honduras, the police did not present the communities with an eviction order, and proceeded to threaten the families and entered their territory with force.

The Business & Human Rights Resource Centre invited Dinant to respond to the allegation; the response can be found below.
