Ciudad de Guatemala. La máxima instancia judicial de Guatemala, la Corte de Constitucionalidad (CC), rechazó este miércoles la solicitud del presidente, Bernardo Arévalo, para quitar un blindaje que le impide destituir a la fiscal general Consuelo Porras.

“A juicio de esta Corte, permanecen las circunstancias que hicieron aconsejable el otorgamiento del amparo provisional (...), no se accede a la solicitud referente a que se revoque la protección interina otorgada por este Tribunal en su oportunidad” a la fiscal, indica la resolución de la CC.
