NEW YORK—A Honduran accountant testified Tuesday that he fled Honduras because he felt his life was in danger after witnessing two meetings in which an alleged drug trafficker paid bribes to now-President Juan Orlando Hernández in 2013.
In both meetings, the subject was “protection and receiving drugs,” said José Sánchez, a pseudonym used for his protection. At one Hernández was given $10,000 and at another the amount was $15,000, the accountant said.
