Chitnis back in London

CATHOLIC peer, Lord Chitnis, a member of the Parliamentary Human Rights Group, returned to London last week after being barred from entering the Colomoncagua camp on the Honduras-El Salvador border, scene of the murder of .two refugees at the end of August.
Lord Chitnis had travelled to Honduras to investigate eyewitness accounts (see Catholic Herald, September 27) of the killing of the two refugees, including a twomonth-old baby, the arrest of 10 Salvadorans accused of being guerrillas and the rape of two women.
On his return Lord Orions, who met with international relief workers at the camp, said that he was "convinced that the views of the eye-witnesses are right and that official views of the incident are wrong".
He met the United States Ambassador in Honduras who backed the official version of a clash between guerrillas among the Salvadoran refugees and Honduran troops.
