On Tuesday night in the center of Durán, two sacks were found containing the head and body of an as yet unidentified man. It is the fourth case in less than three months.
Although the name of the victim is still unknown, the Police presume that the man belonged to the alias gang Weeping, which disputes the territory with other organizations.
The uniformed men raised the remains on Avenida de la Virgen and block B1. There, on the public highway, two packages had been abandoned: a large black plastic case contained the decapitated body and in a jute bag located a few centimeters away was the head.
The find was reported at 20:00. The residents indicated that around 6:00 p.m. in a white car they had arrived to leave the packages.
The uniformed men raised evidence and transferred the remains to the Legal Medicine laboratory. In addition, they check the security cameras of the sector to identify those who left the body.
But it is not the first time that an event like these has been reported in that canton that makes up Zone 8. Last year, three decapitated bodies were found between October and November.
On October 29, on the Las Cabras hill, the remains of a 25-year-old young man were discovered in sacks abandoned on the side of the road.
On Monday, November 22, a head was found inside a jute bag that was in a garbage dump of the Abel Gilbert cooperative. The rest of the body was found in the Primavera 2 sector. It happened at 08:00.
At 3:00 p.m. on the same Monday, another was found beheaded in a rural area near the Duran-Tambo road, according to reports from the National Police.
No details of the skull corresponding to those remains are known, as there are no reports that it had been found, police said at the time. (I)
