The Honduran ambassador to Colombia has been required to resign, his foreign ministry said on Saturday, after his bodyguard reportedly held a Christmas party with prostitutes at the mission.
Carlos Rodriguez Andino stepped down after Honduran Foreign Minister Arturo Corales appointed a special commission to investigate.
"In order to safeguard national interests and good relations with the Republic of Colombia, we have asked for the irrevocable resignation effective immediately of Mr Rodriguez Andino," the foreign ministry said.
According to Honduran media reports, the ambassador's bodyguard and close friend Jorge Mendoza organised a party that turned into an orgy with prostitutes on 20 December at the embassy to celebrate Christmas.
Reports said the prostitutes stole embassy computers and cellphones.
