b)
c)
d)
The gravity of the threats against operators and assistants of justice in Guatemala is
underscored by well-known public facts;
The threats against the members of FAFG “share very serious characteristics: they
announce acts against life and personal integrity and their content leads to the

officials and have access to them, despite the protection schemes implemented by the
State”;
The measures adopted by the State have been insufficient to protect the life of the
beneficiaries;
There is a “pattern of exacerbation of the threats, and the access their authors have to
make them against the FAFG officials”;
