LAS MANOS, Nicaragua, July 24 (Reuters) - Deposed President Manuel Zelaya arrived at the land border of Nicaragua and Honduras on Friday in an attempt to return to Honduras and take power after he was toppled in a military coup.

The ousted leader sat in a white jeep at the border town of Las Manos facing toward a Honduran border crossing a few yards away.

It was unclear if Zelaya would try to cross into Honduras where the de facto government says it will arrest him. (Reporting by Sean Mattson; editing by Mohammad Zargham)
