A report by international experts says energy company executives and state agents conspired to kill renowned Honduran activist Berta Caceres last year.

She was shot dead in March by gunmen in her home. The murder sparked international outrage.

She had opposed plans by the company, DESA, to build a dam across a river on which her indigenous community depended.

Who Ordered Killing of Honduran Activist? Evidence of Broad Plot Is Found
Quote:
 
MEXICO CITY — It was just before midnight when two men kicked in the door to Berta Cáceres’s house in the small Honduran mountain town of La Esperanza. Moving past the kitchen, one of them opened the door to her bedroom and fired six shots. She died moments later.

Report: Coordinated plot to murder Honduran activist Caceres
Quote:
 
MEXICO CITY — An international team of lawyers said Tuesday that the 2016 killing of Honduran environmental activist Berta Caceres was the product of a coordinated plot that began four months earlier and suggested that leadership of a dam development company may have ordered her assassination.

A report by the International Advisory Group of Experts, or GAIPE for its initials in Spanish, said the group had identified “possible intellectual authors” of the murder beyond the eight individuals already charged and concluded the killing was “not an isolated incident.” But it warned that the investigation has been clouded and the full truth may never be brought into the light.

“There is evidence to link high-level state and non-state officials to the murder,” the group said at a news conference to formally present the report in the Honduran capital, Tegucigalpa.

In South America an activist is a confusing term, in English it usually translates to seditious revolutionary. Plotting to kill government officials is not considered a protest.
