In Ecuador, the Prosecutor’s Office has linked three more individuals in the murder of prosecutor César Suárez, who was a key figure in the fight against organized crime and terrorism in the country. Suárez was the victim of a hitman attack on January 17 in Guayaquil.
What you should know. The prosecutor was carrying out investigations into the takeover of the TC Televisión channel and into Mariela Peñarrieta, the wife of the criminal Adolfo Macías, alias Fito, who had escaped from prison, unleashing a wave of violence in the country.
- This investigative work put him in the crosshairs, culminating that day on Avenida del Bombero, when he was ambushed by hitmen.
- In the reconstruction of the events, the Police detailed that Suárez was intercepted shortly after leaving his home, even though he had a telematic hearing scheduled and did not plan to leave.
- According to family accounts, a call convinced him to change his plans, a death trap that his family describes as a deliberate deception to end his life.
What to highlight. The judge in charge of the case imposed precautionary measures on the accused, including a ban on leaving the country, while the investigation period is extended for thirty more days to collect additional evidence.
- Among the evidence presented, highlights include security camera recordings and testimonies that point to Kevin Steven LM, Javier Andrés TZ, and Javier Benito MM as possible suspects.
