CASE
Former Vice President Jorge Glas reportedly received 79 medical treatments at the high-security prison of La Roca, in Guayaquil. This is according to a report from the Ministry of Public Health (MSP).
In this way, the government of Daniel Noboa distorts part of the claims of the letter from the former presidents of the Puebla Group addressed to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR). They insist that Glas be released.
The former official was sent to prison after police forcibly removed him from the Mexican embassy in Quito, where he was granted political asylum.
According to the MSP, Jorge Glas received 32 general medical consultations, 24 family medicine consultations, 12 psychological consultations, two psychiatric consultations and one cardiology consultation. It is ruled out that he was bitten by rats, as indicated in the habeas corpus request.
Glas is believed to have lost seven kilos due to the hunger strike she carried out in protest. However, the judge in the case pointed out that this is not the responsibility of the State or its institutions./ El Comercio
