Prosecutor’s Office requested preventive detention for the investigated for illegal collection of money and fraud after not complying with precautionary measures.
Faced with the breach of the alternative measures by Miguel Ángel Nazareno, known in Quevedo as Don Naza, leader of an illegal money-raising network called Big Money, the Prosecutor’s Office requested that he be held in preventive detention; however, Judge Carlos Bowen arranged periodic presentations once a month.
This was reported by the Prosecutor’s Office, who requested the same measures for her spouse, Gabriela B., and for Dayana S., also involved in this case.
The Prosecutor’s Office has been prosecuting these three people since last October 1 for the alleged crime of illegally raising money, through the platform that does not have authorization to raise money.
That day, as a result of the hearing for the formulation of charges, Judge Bowen himself ordered the periodic presentation before the authority once a week, prohibition of leaving the country and of disposing of assets to Don Naza, Gabriela B. y Dayana S.
But they have not complied with that order established by Bowen, who now asks them to appear, no longer once a week, but once a month; In other words, it denies the request for prison made by the Prosecutor’s Office for this breach and grants more time to those who have not obeyed it.
The whereabouts of Nazareno, who was presented electronically to the audience, is unknown, although through his social networks he continues to offer to return the money to those who entrusted it in exchange for an incredible 90% return every eight days.
Big Money began operating in 2017, as recognized Don Naza. At that time, he belonged to the Ecuadorian Army.
A month ago, the Los Ríos prosecutor Karina Guanopatín indicated that Nazareno is being investigated for having two open judicial processes: one in the Criminal Judicial Unit of Quevedo for the alleged illegal collection of money and another for an alleged massive fraud, handled separately by the State Attorney General’s Office, in Quito.
Guanopatín also said that at the moment it cannot be revealed how many complaints there are in the Los Ríos Prosecutor’s Office for the Big Money case, since the integrity of the people who have lost from the capital of their businesses, vehicles and even their homes is protected. . (I)
