They ask to withdraw decorations awarded by the National Assembly to two sailors involved in drug-criminal actions

The Anti-Corruption Parliamentary Front asked the president of the National Assembly, Virgilio Saquicela, to withdraw the Vicente Rocafuerte Decoration awarded to National Navy sailors Jorge Enrique León Quiñónez and Fabrizzio Cordero Vergara, for drug-criminal links.

Both decorations were managed and delivered by assemblyman Ronny Aleaga, from the Unión por la Esperanza (UNES) correísta bench; In the case of León, it was granted on July 25, 2021, as part of the commemoration of the 486 years of the founding of the city of Guayaquil.

Due to alleged corruption in public companies, there will be investigation actions against Correísta legislator Ronny Aleaga, who no longer has police protection

The petition of the Parliamentary Front is based on the presentation, before the State Attorney General’s Office, of a crime news about an alleged link between criminal structures whose links would presumably reach political figures from different provinces, as well as members of the military and police forces.

The legislators of the parliamentary group point out that the highest distinction made by the National Assembly is the Dr. Vicente Rocafuerte Award, which is awarded solely and exclusively to men and women who, with their contributions to science, technology, education, social merit and vocation of service are creditors of such recognition granted by the first power of the State, which is why said tribute could never be in the hands of citizens whose actions become doubtful, reprehensible and publicly reprehensible.

In the petition, the legislators maintain that on December 15, 2022, the National Police learned that a heavily armed group belonging to the Júnior Roldán gang was outside the prison, who would be in charge of escorting and providing security while the duration of his transfer to the residence.

The special groups of the National Police carried out an operation with the collaboration of the integrated camera system of ECU911, in order to monitor the caravan of the recently released alias JR, who, upon finding themselves discovered at the height of the La Aurora sector (via Salitre) attacked the integrity of the police members, who repelled these attacks and subsequently arrested 37 people, 18 of whom have a criminal record.

Among these arrests are the first Corporal Jorge Enrique León Quiñónez, a member of the National Navy on active duty, who was decorated by the National Assembly with the Vicente Rocafuerte distinction.

In the case of Fabrizzio Cordero, according to the document, he is an employee, follower and friend of Assemblyman Ronny Aleaga and belonged to the private security company Grupo de Protección VIP Halcones, a personal protection company that has provided services to politicians and candidates of the Union movement. for Hope (UNES) and that on December 15, 2022, he gave custody to Júnior Roldán.

On December 5, 2022, on the road to Daule, a member of the National Navy, First Corporal Jhonatan Javier G. C, was intercepted, who was driving an official vehicle of this institution, transporting 18 blocks of cocaine, since this defendant apparently maintained a relationship directly with the corporals decorated by the National Assembly.

Defense Minister Luis Lara informed the Supervisory Commission that First Corporal Jorge Enrique León Quiñónez was discharged from the military ranks, as well as the respective administrative investigation against Corporal Fabrizzio Cordero Vergara.

With this background, says the letter sent by the Parliamentary Anti-Corruption Front to the president of Parliament, what is sought is the moral and institutional sanity that has been demanding citizenship from the National Assembly, and in favor of recovering credibility and faith in the principle of the granting of decorations and merits to the people and institutions that with ample recognition corresponds to them; “It is essential and urgent that you lead and urgently decide to withdraw the unpresentable and dishonorable decorations to these citizens who should never have been beneficiaries of them and that today their behaviors have been justly reproachable by the Armed Forces themselves to whom who served and unworthily wore their uniforms.” (YO)
