Needs to be balanced. Corruption allegations are fine, but they should not be the substance of the article. --Sesel 21:04, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I agree. I am moving it here till it is checked out --SqueakBox 05:28, Mar 20, 2005 (UTC) accused of 7 counts of corruption during his term, including falsification of state documents, abuse of authority, and appropriation of state funds. In the latter case, it has been reported that Callejas appropriated 280,000,000 L. (approx. $22,000,000 during the time of event) from the state's petroleum stabilization fund, and distributed it amongst himself, family, and political allies. Recently declared innocent of all charges of corruption by Honduras' Supreme Court. Bribing and political manipulation by Ovidio Navarro (Callejas' former attorney during corruption trials and now the head of the country's fiscal office, which investigates corruption cases) suspected and being investigated. Highly heated investigation. Several public and private sectors of the population demand his imprisonment. Currently president of the country's soccer federation.

Statement in Spanish

El fue el presidente que mas ha robado a Honduras actor intelectual del pasaportaso vendiendo ilegalmente documentacion hondurena a miles de chinos. Siendo este mismo presidente quien se encargo de subir todos los precios de la canasta familiar desde su gobernacion se ha creado el caos de pobresa en los ultimos 30 anos. El peo presidente que haya tenido Honduras se llama Leoanardo Rafael Callejas. La pregunta del millon donde esta la justicia en Honduras.Una persona quien era abogado dijo una ves que a personas se les jusga por estar en la carcel por 20 anos cometer un delito leve como robarse una gallina porque no tiene que nada para llevar a su mesa para alimentar a su familia y personas que son funcionarias publicas han robado,defarudado al pueblo hondureno estan alli haciendo leyes para los pobres porque los ricos de esta nacion no respetan ni a su madre que los trajo al mundo se mofan y escupen con sus acciones a su patria. Dios y la vida misma se encargara de ellos mismos por eso estan como estan gordos de dinero y llenos avaricia viendo su propio beneficio y no el del pueblo pero por que un pueblo que es ignorante es mas facil para tallar ala forma del alfarero en este caso el Estado de Honduras y sus ambiciosos funcionarios uno de ellos leonardo callejas y en minuscula porque no es nombre de persona que no respeta y porque lo voy a respetar. Una persona muy allegada dijo que este presidente en su gobernacion mando a pavimentar su rancho con fondo del estado de su pais un rancho mejor que el de George W. Bush, tambien confeso haber visto fotografias de un gran castillo que aduena el mismo callejas en Europa donde ni aun los mismos europeos pueden vivir. COMO UN FUNCIONARIO PUBLICO PUEDE HACERSE RIQUISIMO ASI? de tal magnitud que se haga magnate con miles de millones de dollares y euros. Yo por eso me vine de ese pais de locos y ladrones y maldigo a esos ladrones y funcionarios publicos y deberian ser jusgados con el doble de pena por sacar probecho de su puesto y valerse de la confianza del pueblo una ley mas dura hace falta en honduras.

Allegations

There are other allegations that need to be removed. The allegation of 200,00 identities of deceased people being used is not backed by any evidence. The fact is that when Mr Callejas ran for President in the year the articles alleges 200K deceased people voted, the opposing party was in power and controlling the issuance of honduran voting documents and identities. Even if the claim is proven, there should be an additional step required, that would to prove that these votes were used towards Mr Callejas, if any logic would say that it was the opposite Wikihonduras 12:56, 19 February 2007 (UTC) This i innuendo, nothing is proven. This type of comments should not be accepted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rcallejas (talk • contribs) 17:34, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Visa Issue

The article in its part related to 2006 Visa issue lacks neutrality. It mentions that Mr Callejas had his US entry Visa revoked..."although he was not charged with any offense". 1) The US has no authorithy or jurisdiction to charge a Honduran citizen that doesn't break any US Law, thus a US charge is not relevant 2) The US as a overeign state, can allow of disallow any foreign visitor to enter US soil. The government is not required to pose any proof. The fact is that when any foreign citizen applies for a visa, it does so under the assumption that it may be denied or revoked at any time without any explanation. That is why people are required to go to interview. The State Deparment officer conducting the itnerview can make a personal call. If he or she believes that the person applying for a Visa migh in the future break US Law, by staying in the US beyond the allowed time. Therefore denying a visa under the presumption of the person may committ a crime, withouth charging him/her of it. Wikihonduras

Biased edits performed

I see today (April 9, 2007) three edits on former presidents. The Callejas edit was changed to a biased positive view, with many unsupported arguments. The Flores and Reina articles suffered the opposite, where unsupported statements and POV were added as facts. Unless someone has an argument against removing POV and anything unsupported, recent edits (April 9 2007) will be undone. Wikihonduras 20:53, 9 April 2007 (UTC) However the reason that the Visa was cancelled was corruption issues, the USA has the right to cancel Visas, but has not made public any valid documentation or proof of corruption. At issue is a due process that would give assurance that the allegations of corruption utilized to cancel Visa are sustainable —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rcallejas (talk • contribs) 17:45, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
