The president of Ecuador, Daniel Noboaconfirmed this Thursday that he will act firmly before the “terrorists” when consulted regarding a request for guarantees to be delivered by Fabricio Colon Picoidentified as the leader of the criminal gang ‘The Wolves‘, and mentioned in an alleged plan to attack the attorney general, Diana Salazar.
In an interview on ‘FM Mundo’ radio, Noboa pointed out that, if he so wishes, Colón Pico can surrender, who escaped this week from a prison in the Andean city of Riobamba, where he was held following being arrested last week.
The arrest occurred in the middle of an investigation into an alleged kidnapping that occurred some time ago, but shortly following Salazar mentioned it in the alleged plan once morest him.
“Imagine, I also have others who have kidnapped 30 people and want to benefit from the Geneva Treaty”Noboa said when asked regarding Colón Pico’s request.
“Terrorists must be treated as terrorists and we will act firmly. If he wants to surrender, no one is stopping him, let him surrender if he wants”he added.
The ruler asserted that Ecuador “He is already tired of the conditions being set by criminals. Conditions are set by good people, conditions are set by Ecuadorian families, the Government sets them, the State sets them, the criminals do not set them”.
From hiding
In a video that circulates on social networks, Colón Pico introduces himself and points out today’s date before pointing out that he made the piece for Noboa and the public to see, stating that he has no “nothing to hide”.
“I want to surrender, Mr. President, I fled because they told me they were going to kill me, my life is in danger, not for any other reason. Understand, Mr. President, you guarantee my life, that nothing is going to happen to me and I I surrender, Mr. President.”he pointed.
The fugitive from justice assured that he has no “nothing to see” in what he is accused of, and asks “sincerely” Noboa to put on “hand on chest”.
“I have not hidden, I showed my face from the beginning, Mr. President”concluded who, according to Salazar, would be part of the band ‘The Wolves’classified along with other criminal gangs by the Noboa Government as terrorists following the declaration of a “internal armed conflict” in Ecuador.
Colón Pico escaped in the midst of the tension that Ecuador is experiencing following a series of prison riots and the explosion of cars, the kidnapping of police officers, the retention of prison officials in different prisons, and even the armed raid on a television channel on last Tuesday, which ended with 13 detainees.
These events, attributed to criminal gangs, occurred when the Noboa Government was preparing to implement its plan to regain control of Ecuadorian prisons, many of them internally dominated by organized crime groups.
