Relatives of genocide victims watch Efrain Rios Montt in the courtroom during a hearing related to the accusations of genocide, Jan. 26. Efraín Ríos Montt, Guatemala’s former military dictator, was ordered by a Guatemalan judge on Thursday to stand trial on charges of genocide and crimes against humanity leveled at him. He is accused of orchestrating the razing of Indian villages decades ago during the country’s long civil war.
Outside the court, several hundred survivors and human rights activists followed the proceedings, which were broadcast through loudspeakers. They held up pictures of relatives who had been killed or had disappeared during the war.
