Mario Hichos Bracamonte
Mario Hichos Bracamonte is a judge in Guatemala, currently serving in the Juzgado Segundo Pluripersonal de Primera Instancia Penal. He recently came under scrutiny after he granted conditional release to Pedro Alejandro Duque Soto, a suspect in an alleged embezzlement case involving Q20 million from the Crédito Hipotecario Nacional. The Public Ministry (MP) has filed a motion to disqualify him from the case, citing concerns over the impartiality of his judicial conduct and the proper administration of justice.
