Guatemala: Prosecutor's Office builds third case against journalist José Rubén Zamora

"Just two days before the verdict in the trial against him, on charges of money laundering and other crimes, journalist José Rubén Zamora was summoned for a third criminal case in which the Special Prosecutor's Office against Impunity (FECI, for its Spanish acronym) charged him with the crime of continuous use of false documents.

The prosecutor of the FECI, Cinthia Monterroso, said in a hearing held this Monday [Jun 12], that Zamora used false documents to enter and leave the country between 2015 and 2017 and, that in the customs declaration forms for entry and exit a signature that did not correspond to the journalist was used.

The journalist's defense requested a period of time to analyze the new indictment, so the hearing was suspended and will resume next Thursday, June 15."
