The Honduran de-facto government announced Wednesday presidential elections must go ahead as scheduled on November 29, even if considered "unconstitutional", threatening to imprison those who do not take part in this process.

According to the substitute magistrate of the Supreme Electoral Court, TSE Denis Gomez, all those candidates that abandon elections days before may face prison sentences of at least four or six years.

TSE, institution that supported the coup perpetrated in June 28, referred to the articles 209 and 210 of the constitution, threatening those opposing elections run by a coup government in Honduras.

Hundreds of candidates applying for different public positions, among them two running for presidency, announced their withdrawal from an electoral process with neither legal validity nor security of transparency.

National Front against the coup said in a cable there is no way they can have elections if Honduras Constitutional President Manuel Zelaya isnâ�Öt returned.

The Front, embracing several popular sectors, announced pacific demonstrations in several areas to boycott any coup-sponsored elections.

On the other hand, the leader of the de-facto regime Roberto Micheletti rejected once more the return of Zelaya to power and said he will negotiate a way out to the crisis after elections take place on November 29.
