If I may, let me take those questions in reverse order.
In addition to shining a light and investigating this case, an international body could provide assistance, first, with helping to identify those responsible in this matter, and second, in working with authorities to identify lines of investigation in this case that may establish patterns of abuse, which we have documented. What we suspect at this stage but do not know is that those who may have ordered the killing of Berta Cáceres may also have involvement in threats and incidents of violence against other rights defenders, others who have opposed the intervention or engagement of extractive industries, and others who have been dissidents or have spoken out against the military coup in 2009.
What we know is that in Honduras, there is a cycle of impunity and there are many killings of those who oppose powerful interests. We know that judges and prosecutors are threatened and often killed. What is necessary to break that cycle of impunity, we believe, is a thorough investigation that doesn't stop with the hit men but goes up the chain of responsibility to those who are responsible, as a means of changing the dynamic of criminal investigation in Honduras, breaking the cycle of impunity, and moving towards a situation in which those who might order people killed stop and think that there might be criminal accountability for doing so. If they are not going to do it because their hearts are pure, let them at least do it because they think there is a functioning state that can investigate and prosecute them.
With regard to business investment, the Inter-American Commission has established doctrine and norms, more about what guidelines and rights must be respected by investors and by companies operating in different situations in which there is a potential for rights abuse. With regard to indigenous communities, there must be a thorough consultation under ILO 169, but under the case law of the Inter-American Court and the Commission on Human Rights there needs to be free, prior, and informed consent when an investment project has the potential to significantly alter the traditional lifestyles of indigenous and traditional communities. In other words, if it is a major investment project, free, prior, and informed consent....
We focus our work not on whether a particular company or country should or should not invest in a given country, Honduras, but on what norms you must follow if you are investing in Honduras. It is a somewhat different focus and it may not be directly responsive. That is a decision for you to make, whether to invest or not. What we say is that, if you are going to invest, there need to be rigorous guidelines.
Now, what I can say is that, in Honduras, those guidelines are not enforced. We see that not only in the tensions in the communities, but in the violations that occur in that context: threats, police abuse against demonstrators, police abuse against people who oppose extractive processes, and killings of people who are engaged in opposition to extractive processes. With that construct, it is difficult to support investment, but our position is that we hold whoever is engaged to the highest standards of human rights, and they have not been met in Honduras.
