The Prosecutor’s Office warns about the ‘arguments’ of the defenders of Daniel Salcedo

Salcedo was sentenced in the first instance for embezzlement, procedural fraud and is being prosecuted for organized crime

The processes that Daniel Salcedo faces are once again in controversy. The State Prosecutor’s Office publicly warned that the defenders, through “arguments”, try to ignore the provisions of the Organic Comprehensive Criminal Code (COIP) regarding preventive detention.

The entity indicated that the lawyers of Salcedo, sentenced in the first instance for embezzlement, procedural fraud and prosecuted for organized crime, have requested the writ of habeas corpus arguing the expiration of preventive detention in the judicial process for the crime of organized crime, which still no sentence.

The Prosecutor’s Office indicates that it is intended to ignore what is stipulated in the COIP: that the term for the expiration to operate will be counted from the date on which the preventive detention order became effective. Once the sentence is handed down, these deadlines will be interrupted.

Salcedo is sentenced for the crimes of embezzlement, procedural fraud and entry of prohibited items into jail.

“The Prosecutor’s Office calls on the other bodies of the Judicial Function so that, based on their powers, they observe this type of cases that seek to distort the legal norm and favor those who have already been found responsible for committing a crime, generating impunity,” he said in a statement.

Weeks ago, a Court of Criminal Guarantees granted alternative measures (house arrest) to Daniel Salcedo, within the process for organized crime, but other investigations are being carried out against him that would prevent his release from the prison where he is located.

Judge Reinaldo Cevallos, who handled a case, said that Salcedo should remain in a prison for the validity of the sentence of 13 years in prison, for the crime of embezzlement. (I)
