Tenth fugitive of La Roca gets recaptured

Interior Minister, Jose Serrano, through his Twitter account, confirmed the recapture of Ives Cabezas Arce, aka “Duende”, one of the 18 antisocial who escaped from the maximum-security prison in Guayaquil, known as “La Roca” (The Rock), on last February 11.

Serrano attributed the arrest of “Duende”, who was sentenced to 25 years for murder, robbery and possession of weapons, to a combined operation with the Colombian police, because the fugitive was in Bogota.

“Duende” becomes the tenth recaptured inmate of the 18 escapees. Yesterday was announced the recapture of Marco Leon Diaz, aka “Tigrillo”, who was arrested while trying to cross the northern border through the Rumichaca bridge.

10 out of 18 escapees have been captured
