In the middle of the Salado estuary, in front of the Antonio Neumane cooperative, on Trinitaria Island, south of Guayaquil, neighbors found the body of a man whose hands and feet were wrapped in packing tape.
Residents of the sector commented that a body was observed floating and immediately notified ECU911.
National Police personnel arrived at the site to verify the news and, with the help of residents of that area, they managed to advance to the estuary and bring it to the shore.

Commander Fausto Miño, head of the Esteros District, indicated that the man had no signs of torture, no firearm holes or cuts, only that there were blood spots at ear level due to pressure.
For this reason, he added, it is presumed that he was tied up and then thrown into the water alive.
However, he explained that these details will have to be reconfirmed in the autopsy.
Three packed bodies were found in rural Chone
So far, the body is unidentified because no ID or other type of identification was found. The clothing was a T-shirt and shorts.
Dinased and Criminalistics agents arrived at the site for the respective evidence-gathering operation.
The residents of that cooperative said they were afraid of cases like these and pointed out that there is a lot of violence on the site.
Not knowing the deceased, they presume that he was thrown in another sector and the tide brought him to that place. (YO)
