Emilio Tojín
"Justice for Genocide in Guatemala"
The Association for Truth and Justice continues to lead efforts to bring
former military leaders, including former dictator Gen. Ríos Montt, to
justice. Simultaneous legal proceedings in Guatemala and Spain are seeking
to hold former military leaders accountable for genocide and other gross
human rights abuses in the 1980s.
Emilio Tojín, a leader from the Association for Justice and
Reconciliation, is a K'iche' Maya from Guatemala.
