Scientific Department.67 Initially, Jorge Rolando Velásquez Durán opposed fingerprints being taken, but he was advised that, if he did not allow this, “he would be accused of obstruction of justice and the investigation and that, if Claudina Isabel’s case should reach the trial stage, this could be affected if there was no record of the identification of her body.” Following these clarifications and on the advice of a lawyer, friend of the family, he agreed to fingerprints being taken. At her father’s request, Claudina Velásquez’s body was taken to a private area of the funeral home for this purpose.68 63. Report of the Guatemalan Voluntary Fire Service.
