'They put the noose on Zelaya'
Looks like the Hondurans may have suckered Mel after all.
One of the most controversial aspects of the current crisis in Honduras is the reinstatement of ousted President Manuel Zelaya.

The decision is in the hands of the nation's legislature but the plenary of the Honduran Congress cannot call for a vote without prior consultation with the Supreme Court.

At the moment, all eyes are on the recommendation to come from the judiciary which, though not binding, is requisite to the Congress's defining of the country's future.

In an exclusive interview, lawyer and spokesman for the Supreme Court of Justice, Danilo Eyzaguirre talked to Cecilia Barria of BBC Mundo in Tegucigalpa.

Mr Eyzaguirre suggested it was unlikely that Mr Zelaya would return to power and said that the ousted president's negotiators had effectively "placed a noose around his neck" by accepting the terms of agreement signed under the auspices of the United States.
Long interview follows at the link.
