Víctor Manuel Cruz Rivera
Víctor Manuel Cruz Rivera is a judge in Guatemala who recently made headlines for his decision to recuse himself from a case involving Judge Fredy Orellana. Cruz Rivera's ruling to forward the case to the Corte Suprema de Justicia was significant due to Orellana's status as a judicial official with immunity from prosecution. The case in question involved allegations from 23 members of the Guatemalan Congress against Orellana for issuing unconstitutional rulings, including an attempt to dissolve the Movimiento Semilla party, which has been linked to the current president, Bernardo Arévalo. Cruz Rivera's actions reflect the complexities of judicial oversight and political accountability in Guatemala's legal system.
