Honduran leader 'could step down' Honduras night curfew reimposed
(30 minutes later)
Interim Honduran leader, Roberto Micheletti, says he is willing to step down, but only if ousted President, Manuel Zelaya, does not return. The interim government in Honduras has reimposed a night-time curfew after accusing opponents of seeking to provoke disturbances.
The measure, which the authorities say is due to "continued threats", runs from midnight to 0500.
Supporters of the ousted President, Manuel Zelaya, had earlier said they would call strikes and block roads.
Mr Zelaya, who is recognised internationally, says his backers have "the right to insurrection".
The curfew had been lifted at the weekend, two weeks after the ousting of Mr Zelaya.
