A 43 años del asesinato de los periodistas holandeses, el tribunal —compuesto por cinco mujeres— encontró culpables del crimen al exministro de la Defensa, general José Guillermo García, de 91 años; al exdirector de la extinta Policía de Hacienda, coronel Francisco Morán, de 93 años; y al excomandante de la Cuarta Brigada de Infantería, con sede en Chalatenango, coronel Mario Adalberto Reyes Mena, de 85 años.Se trata del primer caso de crímenes de guerra en llegar a etapa de vista pública en El Salvador.
Los procesados no estuvieron presentes durante la vista pública. El general García y el coronel Morán, que según se asegura presentan estado de salud delicado, permanecen bajo custodia policial en un hospital privado de San Salvador, mientras que Reyes Mena vive en Estados Unidos. Laordenó en marzo pasado que se iniciaran los trámites de extradición ante ese país.
