Forty-five days after the terrorist attacks against the National Police on November 1, this Thursday fourteen members of the Los Lobos organization were arrested, who would have participated in the attacks that day in which five uniformed men were murdered in Guayaquil and Durán and at least seven car bombs detonated in police units and gas stations.
Agents of the Anti-Criminal Investigation Unit (UIAD) and prosecutors carried out thirteen operations this morning in Socio Vivienda, Huancavilca Sur and Vergeles.
According to the first reports, this Thursday, December 15, eleven adults and three minors were arrested; among the adolescents there is even a young woman who would have acted in the attacks against the institution.
What results were there in the 45 days of the state of emergency in Guayas, Santo Domingo and Esmeraldas? Police say there was “forcefulness”
The seizures also found 4 firearms, 59 ammunition, 2 feeders and at least 15 blocks of explosives.
Weeks ago, the Minister of the Interior, Juan Zapata, mentioned that in recent weeks at least 80 people had been arrested in connection with the attacks and that many of the gunmen who had participated were minors.
After the state of emergency in Guayas, Santo Domingo and Esmeraldas, the operations will focus on seven provinces
Between November 1 and 3, a series of attacks were reported in various provinces to prevent the transfer of gang leaders to other prisons.
In order not to leave them incommunicado from inside the prisons, the order was issued to attack the uniformed men.
Despite this, the transfers took place and now several bosses are held incommunicado in the maximum security prison known as La Roca. (YO)
