At least three of the seven soldiers who were the subject of an investigation for alleged trafficking in weapons and ammunition revealed yesterday at the Prosecutor General's Office the names of officers who allegedly escaped their responsibilities in the supervision and control of "military intelligence".
He was informed by Edwin Romero, Martin Arroyo's defense attorney. The defender said their versions coincided with those of General Wilson Navas, of the Land Logistics Command.
Navas said that "each logistics unit has its commanders and is responsible for each of the ammunition and weapons belonging to its unit". He said the caliber ammunition handled by the army was 5.56 for HK rifles, 7.62 for FAL rifles and nine millimeters for Esmit Weson pistols, Pietro Bereta.
Navas also said that currently, the logistics command checks all the wineries in the country. The task is performed by six officers and 20 members of the team.
He also revealed that an audit of the Siloge database carried out by the Directorate of Information and Communication Technologies would have led to the conclusion "that there had been a change of 21,656 to 16,518 for the ammunition in object ".
Romero insists that in the future, the prosecution should involve officers who have "control and control of ammunition". He defended his client and, according to him, gave the material only to his colleagues for the guards.
Versions of the seven uniforms and six civilians involved in the supremacy of arms of the armed forces to the narcoterrorist group Oliver Sinisterra, led by alias Guacho, were received from 8:00 am.
The suspects arrived in groups of two and three and amidst strict security measures. They were escorted by Special Operations Group (GOE) commandos and prison officers to develop their unsworn version.
The Office of the Prosecutor had scheduled half an hour of testimony for each procedure. It began with Sobeida Quiñónez, whom the Office of the Prosecutor designated as head of the organization and who was in charge of establishing contacts and ensuring the financing of the purchase of equipment would then be sent to Guacho.
His lawyer, Jimmy Solís, has emphasized the innocence of his client that he describes as a poor farmer living in San Lorenzo, Esmeraldas, with his six minor children.
In order to formulate its charges, the Office of the Prosecutor took into account the police reports with the details of interception and triangulation of appeals.
