Honduran court drops case against ex-President Hernandez after Trump pardon

A court in Honduras dropped charges against former President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was pardoned in the United States for a drug-trafficking conviction. Hernandez, accused of fraud and money laundering from 2010 to 2013, celebrated the decision as vindication, claiming the case was politically motivated. Despite being an ally in the war on drugs, he faced accusations of abusing his power to assist drug traffickers.
