Honduras Presidential Runner-Up Challenges Election Results, Seeks Recount Amid Tensions

Honduras' presidential runner-up, Salvador Nasralla, is challenging the election results, alleging inconsistencies and seeking a recount in at least 12 departments. His legal team filed an appeal with the Electoral Justice Tribunal (TJE), which has requested more documentation. Nasralla's party claims votes for the declared winner, Asfura, were inflated, though Asfura's party denies fraud. The challenge occurs amid political tension and public mistrust, with the Attorney General warning of legal action to protect democracy.
