I don't know the word, but having a quick look-see through Google, I gather that it is a Peruvian slang word used to refer to scoundrels, nasty people, low-lives and so forth.

low-lifes - samdie, JUN 11, 2010
Are you sure? I know why you say it, and that's what I wrote originally - but my spell checker objected to it, so I changed it. Now I have the doubt... - Gekkosan, JUN 11, 2010
I agree with "low-lifes." But interesting question! - tennismom, JUN 11, 2010
I'm opening a new thread with this. - Gekkosan, JUN 11, 2010

It means "disgrace"- it is currently being used to describe Joran van der Sloot in the Peruvian media in regards to the killing of Stefany Flores...the equivalent of murderer, scoundrel, etc... "mal" meaning "bad" in Spanish "grazado" meaning "grace."
