El Salvador families demand justice in past crimes by rebels

Relatives of people killed by guerrillas during El Salvador's 1980-1992 civil war demanded Friday that prosecutors investigate some former leftist rebels for crimes against humanity. El Salvador's armed forces committed the majority of the killings and disappearances, and relatives have long demanded trials for former army officers. The demands involved alleged victims of two of the five rebel factions that made up the Farabundo Marti National Liberation front, known as the FMLN.
