Estad\u00edsticas oficiales del gobierno se\u00f1alan que los homicidios en Honduras est\u00e1n disminuyendo, lo que aumenta la posibilidad de que el pa\u00eds pierda su ignominiosa posici\u00f3n como la capital mundial del crimen. Sin embargo, hay controversia sobre las cifras oficiales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cifras recogidas por el Sistema Estad\u00edstico Policial en L\u00ednea (SEPOL) indican que al 12 de julio de 2015 se hab\u00edan registrado 2.720 homicidios: 518 menos que en el mismo per\u00edodo de 2014, o una disminuci\u00f3n del 16 por ciento, inform\u00f3 La Prensa<\/a>. S\u00f3lo en los primeros 12 d\u00edas de julio, el SEPOL contabiliz\u00f3<\/a> 143 homicidios en todo el pa\u00eds, 45 menos que en 2014 (vea la tabla a continuaci\u00f3n).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sin embargo, representantes del Observatorio de la Violencia<\/a>, de la Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de Honduras (UNAH), cuestionaron estas cifras, preguntando por qu\u00e9 al menos 30 casos de homicidios documentados por el Observatorio no fueron incluidos en las estad\u00edsticas de SEPOL de 2015. Seg\u00fan La Prensa, el Centro de Derechos de Mujeres<\/a> (CDM) tambi\u00e9n document\u00f3 47 muertes violentas que no fueron incluidas en los datos del SEPOL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arabesca S\u00e1nchez, consultora de seguridad, se\u00f1al\u00f3 que las cifras del SEPOL est\u00e1n rodeadas de \u201cgran incertidumbre\u201d y puso en duda la metodolog\u00eda de la entidad y la falta de coordinaci\u00f3n con grupos de la sociedad civil para recopilar datos de homicidios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An\u00e1lisis de InSight Crime<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Honduras ha sido la capital mundial del crimen<\/a> en los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os. La tasa de homicidios se elev\u00f3 en el pa\u00eds en 66 por cada 100.000 personas<\/a>, a\u00f1o en el que el Observatorio de Violencia de la UNAH registr\u00f3 86,5 asesinatos por cada 100.000 personas (sin embargo, la Oficina de las Naciones Unidas contra la Droga y el Delito, ONUDD, registr\u00f3 una tasa de homicidios de 91.6 en Honduras en el mismo a\u00f1o).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VEA TAMBI\u00c9N<\/strong><\/span>: Cobertura sobre los homicidios<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Desde 2011, sin embargo, las estad\u00edsticas muestran que las tasas de homicidios de Honduras han disminuido<\/a>, y que llegaron a 66 por cada 100.000 personas<\/a> a finales de 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mientras que se cree que las autoridades hondure\u00f1as han manipulado y rebajado<\/a> las estad\u00edsticas de homicidios con el fin de presentar una imagen m\u00e1s positiva \u2014lo cual ha levantado sospechas de que se haya hecho una manipulaci\u00f3n similar con los datos actuales\u2014, la tendencia a la disminuci\u00f3n de los homicidios en el pa\u00eds le puede permitir deshacerse de su lugar como el pa\u00eds m\u00e1s violento del mundo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El m\u00e1s probable candidato para remplazar a Honduras en este primer puesto es El Salvador, donde la violencia<\/a> se ha estado acercando a niveles similares a los de la guerra civil<\/a>. De enero a junio, en El Salvador se presentaron 2.965 homicidios, un aumento del 61 por ciento con respecto al mismo periodo en 2014 \u2014un a\u00f1o en el que el pa\u00eds registr\u00f3 una tasa de homicidios de alrededor de 61 por cada 100.000 personas\u2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los crecientes niveles de violencia<\/a> tambi\u00e9n ubican a Venezuela como un candidato para remplazar a Honduras<\/a>. Aunque es bastante dif\u00edcil obtener estad\u00edsticas confiables<\/a> de los homicidios en Venezuela, el pa\u00eds cerr\u00f3 2014<\/a> con una tasa de homicidios estimada en 54 por cada 100.000 personas, seg\u00fan la ONG Observatorio Venezolano de Violencia (OVV).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
