Prosecutor’s Office will file charges for embezzlement against Daniel Salcedo

Daniel Salcedo and  Joselyn M. arrived at 03:15 on this Wednesday, June 10, 2020, at the  Flagrancia Unidad  Cuartel Modelo , in the city of Guayaquil , once they were  expelled on Tuesday night from Peru   and 48 hours after that the aircraft in which they were fleeing crashed (in fact the death of the pilot was recorded).

The security capsule that transferred Daniel Salcedo from Peru left the hospital at 10:00 p.m. and crossed the border approximately an hour after the expulsion proceedings , government minister María Paula Romo reported earlier.

“They are already in Guayaquil and the Ecuadorian Police will immediately put them under orders of justice, ” added the official on her Twitter account.

The Prosecutor General’s Office reported that in the flagrante unit both medical-legal examinations were performed and the corresponding version was taken .

The Prosecutor’s Office plans to press charges against Daniel Salcedo for his alleged participation in the crime of embezzlement , in the case of purchases of medical supplies by the Social Security Hospital in Guayaquil.

In addition, it is evaluated to proceed with a second hearing , for an alleged crime of procedural fraud against the same citizen, who would have tried to deceive the judicial authority with his actions. This crime is punished with a custodial sentence of one to three years in prison.

Authorities began inquiries into the ship’s accident. Salcedo, along with three other passengers, was on that form of transportation that crashed on Monday in the border town of Tumbes . The plane did not have immigration permits to make an international trip. The ship presented several irregularities such as plate adulteration and the flight path. As a result of the mechanical accident, the pilot died .

Last night, Ecuadorian Police Colonel William Pozo indicated that Joselyn M. is not being detained, but being held for investigations. This was confirmed by the Prosecutor’s Office.

On Tuesday afternoon, the arrest of Salcedo’s brother was reported  on the border with Peru, with approximately $ 40,000 in cash.

Meanwhile, this Wednesday, June 10, the Prosecutor’s Office raided the offices of the airline from which Daniel Salcedo escaped. (I)
