Five members of Guatemala's anti-corruption prosecutor's office have resigned from their posts this month, the public ministry said on Monday, after two of them publicly denounced what they called unjust prosecution.
Juan Luis Pantaleon, a spokesperson for the public ministry, confirmed the resignations of three public prosecutors and two assistants from the Special Prosecutor's Office against Impunity , without elaborating on the reasons they gave for leaving their posts. Now in Washington DC, Herrera said in a statement there was a campaign of persecution against independent justice operators with the aim of"guaranteeing impunity to criminal networks.""To prevent an attempt on my life, I made the difficult decision to resign and leave the country to avoid being one more victim of unjust persecution," Videz said in a statement.
Pantaleón rejected the accusations of persecution against independent judicial officials as well as Videz's accusations against Porras.
