Guatemala, Mar 2 (Prensa Latina) A total of 33 Guatemalans make up the list of candidates for rapporteurs of the National Office for the Prevention of Torture for 2022-2027, according to reports on Wednesday.

The Human Rights Commission of the Congress, in charge of this election, announced that they will define on Tuesday, March 8, the shortlists that will reach the plenary session of legislators, who will finally vote for three rapporteurs and three substitutes.

Antonio Arenales, of Valor bloc, and president of the Chamber, reported that nine objections presented against several candidates were dismissed, for not having a concrete basis.
