President Lasso reacts to the crime of Javier Rosero, leader of Los Ceibos

President Guillermo Lasso has condemned this Friday afternoon the attack against businessman Javier Rosero, who was assassinated this morning in the north of Guayaquil.

Rosero was president of the Los Ceibos Committee and was intercepted by hit men when he was returning home with his wife.

“We condemn the cowardly attack on the citizen Javier Rosero. The @policeecuador is activated in the search for the culprits so that their crime receives the full weight of the law,” Lasso said on his Twitter account.

Christian Meléndez, head of the Los Ceibos District, said that the two individuals aboard a red motorcycle reached the car and one of them got out to attack it.

Who was Javier Rosero Quiroz, the president of the Los Ceibos committee who was assassinated this Friday the 13th?

He ruled out that it was a robbery, since they came directly to commit the crime while the victim was waiting for the traffic light to change.

Likewise, the police chief maintained that his relatives indicated that he had never received any type of threat.

The Los Ceibos Committee issued a statement in which it regrets the loss of its president in this event.
