Description
Several journalists and photojournalists gather at the side of a table during a press conference held by the three principal presidential candidates to claim voter fraud in the 1982 elections against Ángel Aníbal Guevara. There is a man standing in the middle of the image wearing a suit and reading from a notepad. Below him there is another man squatting as he holds his camera. A military coup prevented Guevara from assuming power and installed a three-man junta headed by General Efraín Ríos Montt.
Varios periodistas y fotoperiodistas yacen reunidos sobre el costado de una mesa durante una conferencia de prensa organizada por los tres principales candidatos presidenciales para reclamar el fraude electoral en las elecciones de 1982 contra Ángel Aníbal Guevara. En la imagen se observa a un hombre parado en traje leyendo de su libreta. Debajo de él se observa a un hombre agachado mientras sostiene su cámara. Un golpe de estado militar previnó que Guevara asumiera el poder e instaló una junta de tres militares encabezada por el general Efraín Ríos Montt.
