After a year of his murder, there are no accused for the murder of JL, the late leader of Los Choneros

After the dismissal of three people, the Prosecutor’s Office opened an investigation against other alleged implicated in the murder of Jorge Luis Zambrano.

A year after the assassination of Jorge Luis Zambrano González, alias JL or Rasquiña, who was the leader of the Los Choneros gang, there are still no prosecuted for his hitman-style death.

The incident took place around 6:00 p.m. on December 28, 2020, in a cafeteria located inside a shopping center in Manta.

The autopsy determined fifteen holes in the body of JL, who after being wounded was taken to a clinic, where the death was confirmed. He had barely recovered his freedom from Latacunga jail for six months.

“Injury of superior nervous centers, subarachnoid hemorrhage and transafixing tear of the encephalic mass and multiple penetrating wounds, an event with a firearm produced by the 15 gunshot wounds (eight entry and seven exit)”, indicated the report that included in the Automatic Judicial Procedure System (Satje), in the investigation that began after his death.

Paco Delgado, who was as Prosecutor for Guarantees and Persons of the State Attorney General’s Office (FGE) in Manta until last August, pointed out that in this case there is still an open investigation, since after the dismissal of the investigation of three people from the province de Los Ríos ordered an investigation to be opened for three other people.

Those three people who were investigated in the first instance were Lisa MFP, José JSB and Nelson NRP; The latter was even arrested on the night of December 28 and is the one who was presumed in the investigation as an assistant to the person who shot JL.

“There were three people there (for a new investigative process for JL’s death), there were telephone links, they were not with names, but there were three people to be investigated to find the direct author (of death), because they never found the direct author, ”Delgado reported.

In the investigation of the murder of Jorge Luis Zambrano, leader of the Los Choneros gang, three people were acquitted

Among the evidence found for the only detainee who had this investigation (Nelson NRP), there was a telephone where conversations were obtained through social media applications, such as WhatsApp, and call logs, even from Mexico.

“There is no conversation, you don’t have that information. The only thing that did have that phone were calls specifically from Mexico; You didn’t have the content, who the person was, only the country of origin, because the call is registered on the phone, ”Delgado declared on February 25.

The murder of Zambrano generated several disputes between gangs. At the time, the authorities recognized that the killings in the prisons that took place at the beginning of this year and that later continued with other deaths in the country’s prisons were due to internal disputes over taking the empty leadership.
