Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Ecuador’s special forces captured justice Jorge Glas after jumping into the Mexican embassy in viral video.
Mexico said it has cut diplomatic ties with Ecuador after police stormed the country’s embassy in Quito on Friday to arrest former Ecuadorian vice-president Jorge Glas who was taking refuge there.
Glas sought refuge in the Mexican embassy last December after an arrest warrant was issued against him for alleged corruption, in a move that Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa’s government branded an “illicit act”.
But a higher court in the same province annulled that decision after a petition from the SNAI prison agency, which argued procedural errors mean Glas must serve the rest of his sentences.
“The immediate locating, capture and transfer of citizen Jorge David Glas Espinel to the social-regional rehabilitation center Sierra Centro Norte Cotopaxi is decreed,” the Santa Elena Justice Court said in a statement.
