TEGUCIGALPA – If what is happening in Honduras were the script of a Hollywood movie, you would probably brush it off as too bizarre to believe: a president whisked out of his bed at dawn at gunpoint by soldiers, put on a plane – still wearing his pajamas - and sent to a neighbouring country.
The congress, led by his own political party, which has turned on him, then presents a false resignation letter and replaces him with the man who used to be his close friend and campaign manager!
The deposed president tries to get back into the country, overflying the runway in a borrowed plane while the world watches the whole thing live on television ... but he can’t land because the runway is blocked, so he sneaks back in by land, wearing a disguise, and takes refuge at the Brazilian Embassy, betting that his countrymen will rise up to reinstate him in the Presidential Palace.
