Opposition activists in Honduras have leveled corruption accusations against different government divisions and agencies in the past few months. The government has promised to investigate, but the first to be called in for questioning by the Attorney General's Office was former president Manuel Zelaya, deposed in a 2009 military coup, in relation to that year's budget spending. Zelaya is accused of having spent government funds on a constitutional referendum, which was cut short by the coup. Many say that going after Zelaya, currently a top opposition leader, is a case of political persecution and is designed to divert public attention away from the ongoing corruption scandals.
