Justice plays a crucial role in prosecuting acts of corruption by Politically Exposed Persons in Honduras. Justice must be independent, impartial and efficient to investigate, judge and punish those involved in acts of corruption. It is the responsibility of courts and prosecutors to conduct rigorous investigations, gather solid evidence, and ensure fair trials. Justice must also ensure that appropriate, proportional and dissuasive sanctions are imposed on those responsible for acts of corruption.
