Honduras: Supporters of President Xiomara Castro to rally in Tegucigalpa Jan. 27

Supporters of President Xiomara Castro plan to rally in Tegucigalpa to mark her second year in office on Jan. 27. While the government has called for supporters to gather in the capital on the day, there have as yet been no details released concerning the exact locations and start times for celebratory events. Nevertheless, participants will likely assemble outside the National Congress and other prominent government buildings. The gatherings could draw very large crowds.

Security forces will almost certainly deploy to monitor the gatherings; transport and business disruptions are likely near any rallies or other demonstrations that may materialize. The event will likely remain peaceful.
