Editing Tiburcio Carías Andino (section)

===Crimes===
The dictatorship of General Carias Andino, like other regimes in Latin America, was not exempt from having various human rights violations in its history. El Cariato was mainly characterized by strong media censorship as the government supervised the press and radio, and brutality against unarmed civilians by the armed forces. One of the ethnic groups most affected by the policies imposed during this period was the Garífuna community, being constantly silenced and attacked by the military forces. The massacre of Tela that occurred in 1937 against the Garífuna population ordered by Carías himself stands out. Another well-remembered crime was the so-called "San Pedro Sula massacre" that occurred on July 6, 1944 after the military forces brutally repressed unarmed citizens of San Pedro Sula who had started a protest in the streets of the city demanding his resignation. More than 70 deaths were recorded and an as yet undetermined number of hundreds wounded by military repression, including the elderly and women.<ref>{{Cita web|url=https://criterio.hn/la-masacre-san -pedro-sula-6-julio-1944/|título=THE SAN PEDRO SULA MASSACRE.

Another aspect was the torture at the hands of the military in the different penal centers to prisoners, the majority of whom were political opponents, who became saturated with prisoners at one point during his mandate. Many of the workers in the plantations and mines lived in subhuman conditions with little electricity, water or enough food and their work was a condition of almost slavery and more than plantation and mining centers they were more similar to [[Concentration camp|camps of concentration]] or forced labor, since some prisoners were also sent to these zones to work as an alternative option instead of staying in the penal centers. Much of the country's infrastructure was also built with the labor of prisoners, mostly political opponents and civilians.
