TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras, June 30 (UPI) -- The provisional government of Honduras announced Tuesday it would arrest ousted President Manuel Zelaya if he returns to the country.
The Honduran foreign minister told CNN Espanol Tuesday Zelaya would face several charges.
Military troops arrested Zelaya Sunday before a proposed referendum on presidential term limits. Zelaya wanted to seek a second term next year.
By law, the Honduran leader, elected in 2005, is limited to one term in office.
He was sent into exile in neighboring Costa Rica.
Zelaya was in New York Tuesday to address the United Nations and ask for its assistance.
The U.N. General Assembly adopted a resolution calling on all member nations not to recognize the provisional government in Honduras.
Zelaya said he is planning to return to Honduras Thursday.
