Former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez said Tuesday he is ready to collaborate with national police, hours after authorities surrounded his house amid U.S. government requests that he be arrested and extradited to Washington.
Speculation had been swirling for months that the United States was planning to request Hernandez's extradition when he left office amid accusations that he colluded with drug traffickers. Leftist leader Xiomara Castro replaced him as president last month.
