Guatemala's penitentiary system has requested authorities investigate 108 prison guards for charges including possible abuse of power, the government said in a statement on Tuesday, APA reports.
Some 102 of the guards worked at a prison known as "El Infiernito" (The Little Hell) around 50 miles (80 km) south of the capital, which housed a couple hundred suspected members of the Barrio 18 criminal gang and was cleared out earlier this month.
