text: consultations with a view to establishing a commission to investigate disappearances in Guatemala. To date, no such commission has been set up. Moreover, President Cerezo had given a personal undertaking to the mother of Jose Alberto Camarda Atencio to investigate and report on his disappearance in June 1988 but no news had yet been forthcoming. 29. The relatives of Guatemalan disappeared persons had always shown their readiness to collaborate in clarifying the facts regarding disappearances but such activities had often resulted in their own deaths, as in the cases of Gomez Calito and Rosario de Cuevas. 30. It was also worthy of note that the notorious General Efrain Rios Montt, who had seized power by force in 1982, had kept Guatemala under a permanent state of emergency while in office and had created the special courts which had tried and executed many Guatemalan citizens, intended to participate in the election. 31. Notwithstanding the ongoing dialogue in El Salvador between the Government and the Farabundo Marti National Liberation Movement (FMLN), violations of human rights continued. Death threats had been received by members of her organization and of other humanitarian agencies on the grounds that they had been acting as cover for the FMLN. Those organizations therefore urged the Government and the FMLN not to allow their negotiations to become bogged down; to permit relatives of the victims of the armed conflicts to participate in those negotiations; to end the immunity of senior military officers involved in human rights violations; to reduce the armed forces and dismantle the death squads; to make structural changes in the currently ineffective judicial system; and to investigate and punish those guilty of assassinations, forced disappearances, torture and other human rights violations. The United States of America should also be asked to terminate its military aid to the Salvadorian army.
