Manuel Benedicto Lucas García
Manuel Benedicto Lucas García is a retired Guatemalan military officer who has gained notoriety due to his alleged involvement in human rights violations during the Guatemalan Civil War, particularly against the Ixil Maya population. He is currently facing charges of crimes against humanity and forced disappearance, linked to the deaths of indigenous people while his brother, Romeo Lucas García, served as president. Recently, he was granted alternative measures to imprisonment, including house arrest, although he remains detained due to other legal issues. His case is part of ongoing efforts to address the legacy of violence and impunity in Guatemala.
