Watch this remarkable video from Guatemala, recorded by the lawyer Rodrigo Rosenberg, in which he accuses president Colom of ordering his murder. He was gunned down in the street on May 10, and the video released to the media.
Rosenberg was investigating the murder of two clients, Khalil Musa and his daughter, and said he had documents proving that the murders were orchestrated by the president and his wife, after Musa refused to launder drug money for the government at state-owned bank Banrural, where he was recently appointed to the board.
The video has provoked a political crisis in Guatemala, with the president calling for an independent inquiry run by the FBI to clear his name.
