The Fincas Delia sector, at kilometer 6.5 of the Durán-Tambo highway, has been in the news recently due to the intervention of the Police and military, who dismantled an office parallel to the Municipality of Durán, this office was allegedly dedicated to illegal procedures related to land trafficking and other illicit businesses, this event has attracted public attention and has led to a series of operations and censuses in the area.
In the Fincas Delia sector, located at kilometer 6.5 of the Durán-Tambo highway, a parallel office that was operating clandestinely was discovered. This office was equipped with documents, satellite images of Durán, stamps and computers, which will be analyzed to determine possible connections with the Municipality of Durán. Two people, a man and a woman, were arrested on suspicion of illegal use of land and land trafficking. Fincas Delia is a large cooperative on the right side of the Durán-Tambo highway, surrounded by factories, chemical plants, poultry farms, shrimp farms and construction materials companies. Many families live in this area in houses made of cane and cement, and its streets are dusty in summer and muddy in winter.
The Fincas Delia sector had already been in the news in 2016 due to a hydraulic filling project with material dredged from the El Palmar islet in the Guayas River. In addition, in 2011, the parents of the Mariana Mendieta de Narváez school denounced the precarious conditions in which 150 children studied, which led to the implementation of improvements in the school infrastructure. Recently, Fincas Delia has returned to the public spotlight due to the intervention of the security forces in Durán, one of the most dangerous cities in the world with a rate of 145 violent deaths per 100,000 inhabitants and approximately 250 murders so far this year. The intervention began on Wednesday, July 17, when President Daniel Noboa arrived in Durán in a tank and announced permanent operations against crime, stating that the mafias had their days numbered.
During these operations, brigades from the Technical Secretariat for the Prevention of Irregular Settlements are surveying the Fincas Delia sector, delivering notifications house by house to verify the documentation of the legitimate owners. This is crucial, since many people have been dispossessed of their homes by organized crime groups (GDO).
The discovery of a parallel office in Fincas Delia has triggered a series of operations and censuses in the area, reflecting the constant fight against crime and land trafficking in Durán. The intervention of the security forces and government attention seek to restore order and protect the legitimate owners of their homes. This event highlights the need for effective measures to combat corruption and organized crime, thus ensuring the safety and well-being of citizens.
