Fredy Peccerelli heads the Fundación de Antropología Forense de Guatemala (FAFG), Guatemalan Forensic Anthropology Foundation, which works to identify people massacred and buried in mass graves by the armed forces during the internal armed conflict (1960-1996). He and his colleagues and relatives, including José Samuel Suasnava, Omar Bertoni Girón, Bianka Pecerelli and Gianni Peccerelli, have received death threats. Amnesty International believes they are in grave danger.
