    Guatemalan Deputies Confront University Rector Amid Student Expulsions and Campus Violence

    Guatemalan Deputies Confront University Rector Amid Student Expulsions and Campus Violence Guatemala City – A heated confrontation unfolded yesterday at the Mexican embassy in Guatemala City between two prominent deputies, Elena Mota and Mercedes Monzón, and Walter Mazariegos, the rector of the University of San Carlos (USAC). The deputies directly accused Mazariegos of responsibility for the violent expulsion of university students on Wednesday, May 28th, at the USAC Central Campus. The incident involved the assault of a journalist and two deputies who were attempting to inspect a daycare center on campus. "We are here to demand accountability for the violence against students and the assault on those who were simply trying to do their job," stated Deputy Mota in a passionate address captured on video. The video footage clearly shows the deputies engaging in a tense verbal exchange with Mazariegos, highlighting the gravity of the situation. The confrontation highlights growing concerns about the handling of student protests and the level of security on university campuses in Guatemala. The incident underscores the need for a thorough investigation into the events of May 28th and the implementation of measures to prevent future violence. The assault on the journalist and deputies raises serious questions about freedom of the press and the safety of those carrying out oversight functions. The Mexican embassy, where the incident occurred, has not yet issued a statement. The Guatemalan government is expected to address the situation in the coming days. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing political and social tensions within the country.
