15Until recently, few Hondurans knew about Los Cachiros.Vao talohaloha teo dia vitsy ihany ny Hondioràna no mahafantatra ny momba ny Los Cachiros.
16Journalists did not dare write about their activities.Tsy mahasahy manoratra mopmba ny zavatra ataony ny mpanao gazety.
17In fact, few reporters visit Colon, their territory, or other northern territories in this Central American country, where dozens of narco chieftains have built profitable drug trafficking networks with little scrutiny from the local press.Raha ny marina, vitsy ny mpanangom-baovao no efa nitsidika an'i Colon, ny zaratanin'izy ireo, na zaratany hafa any avaratra ao amin'ity firenena Amerikana Tafovoany ity, izay ampolony ny lehiben'ny mpanondrana rongony no mampiroborobo ny tambajotran-drongoniny tsy dia misy fanarahamason'ny fampahalalam-baovao ao an-toerana.

21“We published (the story) because the United States gave us information,” explained without hesitation a local newspaper editor who asked not to be identified in this article.“Namoaka ny tantara izahay satria i Etazonia no nanome ny vaovao taminay,” hoy ny fanazavana tsy misy fisalasalana nataon'ny tonian'ny gazety iray nangataka ny tsy hotononina anarana ao amin'ity lahatsoratra ity.

25Honduras has become the ideal transit spot for international drug traffickers.Lasa toerana idealy hanaovana trafikan-drongony iraisampirenena i Honduras.

27In the last four years since President Manuel Zelaya was deposed and President Porfirio Lobo was selected, an institutional crisis has hit the country, creating a power vacuum that has been exploited by local and international organized crimes groups, according to UNODC.Tao anatin'ny efa-taona farany izay nanonganana ny filoha Manuel Zelaya sy nametrahana ny Filoha Porfirio Lobo, dia nisy krizin'andrimpanjakana nandevona ity firenena ity, izay niteraka fahabangam-pahefana izay nohararaotin'ny fikambanan-jiolahy iraisampirenena sy ao an-toerana, araka ny tatitra nataon'ny UNODC.

33Maras or organized youth gangs-MS13 and Mara 18, which originated in the nineties with deported gang members who grew up in low-income barrios in California-control barrios in some of the country's most important cities.Ao ihany koa ny Maras na andian-jiolahimboto tanora-MS13 sy Mara 18, izay nanomboka tamin'ny taompolo 90 tamin'ny alalan'ny fanondranana ireo andian-jiolahimboto nihalehibe tany amin'ny barrios mahantran'i California - ary mifehy ny barrios any amin'ny sasantsasany amin'ireo tanandehibe malazan'ny firenena.

35Youth gangs throughout the country work as low-level level drug distributors and are sometimes subcontracted by the cartels as foot soldiers or enforcers, according to Honduran police and the UNODC.Ireo andian-jiolahimboto manerana ny firenena ireo no manao ny asan'ny mpaninjara rongony sy antsoin'ny vondrona tsindraindray ho miaramila mpandeha an-tongotra na mamita iraka (ratsy), araka ny filazan'ny polisy Hondiorana sy ny UNODC.
36However, when reading most Honduran newspapers, readers go away with little understanding of what is occurring in the country.Na izany aza, rehefa vakiana ny ankamaroan'ny gazety ao Honduras, dia tsy mahazo tsara izay tena mitranga ao amin'ny firenena ny mpamaky.
37Most crime stories are written without context or explanation and are accompanied by bloody, gory pictures.Soratana tsy misy filazalazana ny toe-draharaha na fanazavazavana ny tantaram-pamonoan'olona feno ra mandriaka, sary mankandoa.
