A protester holds a sign that reads ¨Murdering Hands¨ in front of the National Palace in Guatemala City May 15, 2009. Daily protests against Guatemala's President Alvaro Colom have been met with counter protests showing support. Colom and Guatemala's business elite are embroiled in a scandal involving money laundering, embezzling government funds and ordering assassinations, following the murder of a prominent lawyer Rodrigo Rosenberg. Copies of a video and written statement made by Rosenberg arrived at the offices of several media houses in the capital on Monday, one day after the lawyer was shot dead by armed men who followed him in two cars as he exercised on his mountain bike in an upmarket suburb of the city.
