The 2009 Honduran coup d'état is an ongoing Honduran military coup d'état that started on Honduras on 29 June 2009. President Manuel Zelaya's attempt to have a constitutional referendum on June 28, 2009, to change the constitution and allow him to be re-elected has provoked a serious political crisis in the country. He has been arrested by his country's army and is being held in an airbase outside Tegucigalpa. Honduran radio station HRN reported that Zelaya had been sent into exile to Costa RIca. The radio announcer said it was not known to what country he had been taken but "apparently he flew on the presidential plane to Venezuela."
