politician Guatemala

Juan Francisco Sandoval is a former Guatemalan prosecutor who served as the head of the Fiscalía Especial contra la Impunidad (Feci) and played a key role in investigating corruption, particularly in relation to the Odebrecht scandal. His tenure at Feci was marked by significant efforts to combat impunity and corruption in Guatemala, but he faced political backlash and threats that ultimately led him to flee the country. Recently, Sandoval was in the news for denouncing what he termed a manipulation strategy by the Guatemalan Ministry of Public Affairs, asserting that the recent accusations against him and others were attempts to cover up the true beneficiaries of the Odebrecht corruption scheme.
