The murder of prosecutor César Suárez, who was investigating the armed attack on the canal TC television, several cases of drug trafficking and others involving people like D. Salcedo; as well as the warning that criminals could pose as supportive citizens and offer contaminated food to the public force, confirm that the street remains a concern despite the actions amid the internal armed conflict.

The announcement of the Armed Forces spread through the social network of the Military Operation, and in this context they ask that every donation be delivered to the Ministry of Economic and Social Inclusion (MIOSI) for subsequent distribution, considering that terrorist groups are looking for methodologies to harm those who work to restore peace in Ecuador.

The institution reminded that military personnel have their own combat ration, food and water for hydration.

Unfortunately, the levels of insecurity lead to suspicion, even when the solidarity of Ecuadorians is known. However, the Armed Forces and the National Police have reason to protect their members from various threats that could be introduced.

No one is free from risk in a situation of violence and the now declared internal armed conflict. The proof is the murder, also this January 17, of prosecutor Suárez, who was conducting investigations that were by their very nature high-risk. Investigations of this crime must concern all competent authorities, as well as all indications of danger that may exist for institutions or officials who are fighting for the country to overcome an uncertain crisis. There is an obligation to justice, because impunity cannot continue to work in favor of criminals. (OR)
