The Military Industry is a private company of the Armed Forces of Honduras, where they make uniforms and other clothing and shoes for soldiers, but also sell clothing to private businesses.
The Security Ministry spokesman, Orlin Cerrato, broke the news, “Jimenez was in front of his house in Colonia Los Robles, south of the capital, some individuals got out of a taxi and shot him,” said the officer.
The colonel was still alive, and brought to the military hospital where he died only a few minutes later. Police said the motive was unknown.
Jimenez was in command of the 105th Infantry Brigade in San Pedro Sula where he was known for his humility and friendliness, without losing the character which required him to be leading the military squadron.

The Majority of Honduras should stand united against this violence that has witnessed an increase in the country since the return of Zelaya to the Brazillian Embassy.
A joint military and police investigation should be launched into the killings to determine if the killers are connected to Pro-Zelaya supporters.
where is the ” international community ” now ??? ………. are they still solid behind there choise of president for honduras ……….. do you still want him in office for a few month so can hide all the crooked things he and his gang of crooks and murderes did…..????….come on hillary as secretarie of state it is time you make a statement on this situation ….where are you hiding…….??
Michelletti’s nephew and a Colonel of the Armed Forces killed.
Are we going to wait untill what?
We already know that no matter how much proof we are able to present to the same people that are forcing our hand now, they will choose not to see it.
It is very possible that Zelaya will get what he wants, a lot of dead Hondurans, but he wont be president again, of that the UNO, OAS and USA should be very certain of.
He is the root of this decease, and maybe it is time to find the cure.
Mr. Michelletti and family, my condolonces go to you and yours.
You will be out from the presidency soon, way too soon if you ask me, and many Hondurans think like me on that point.
Zelaya, you must start to be very careful, you spilled blood, and will pay for that.
Where is any response to this from the OAS or US Statement or Mula’s nation, Brazil?
Will they allow the filthy socialists and communists to continue murdering people?
This should show Honduras how much they must never let dishonest thief Zelaya in office. He is to be tried for stealing 6 million from Honduras and for treason.
Hopefully, HOnduras will see that the OAS is pro-socialist..and for the first time in U.S. history..the U.S. State department is operating in a pro-socialist manner.
If this is related to Z’liar’s henchmen it should be denounced and condemned. These communists will do the unnamable to create terror and get to and keep their power. Micheletti’s nephew was also murdered. This is too much of a coincidence. Does the international community want for mafia killers to run Honduras like they run the show in Cuba and Venezuela????
