Ecuadorian President Guillermo Lasso did not appear this Monday before the Periodic Commission National Assembly of Ecuador submit reports and present their version of the complaint that links the relative to the alleged corruption plot.

The president’s lawyer, Jossuet Almeida, justified the president’s absence by saying that he already had pre-planned events on his agenda, so he did not attend the hearing in the Encuentro case, for which one of his brothers-in-law ran an alleged corruption scheme in the country’s state-owned companies, according to according to the newspaper Trade Quito.

Absence William Lasso This irritated the president of the interim commission, Viviana Velos (UNES, the formation of former President Rafael Correa). She assured that in this case the president could be held politically responsible, since there are crimes such as extortion, embezzlement of public funds, money laundering and organized crime.

An alleged corruption plot uncovered by La Posta newspaper through leaked audio recordings attributed to Leonardo Cortazar, Lasso’s son-in-law, points to a self-created structure through which he allegedly received bribes from suppliers to the Electricity Corporation of Ecuador (Celec) and National Electricity (CNEL).

Likewise, a report by the Ecuadorian National Police, released this Monday, links a senior official in President Guillermo Lasso’s government to the so-called Albanian mafia.

The investigation concludes that the president’s government may have been linked to the Albanian mafia through Ruben Cerres, who Telesur reports was Danilo Carrera’s chief cameraman.

However, more details are still unknown about how the alleged Albanian mafia could have influenced the decisions of the executive branch.

They demand Lasso’s resignation

This was stated by the President of the Confederation of Indigenous Peoples of Ecuador (Konaye) Leonidas Iza. Guillermo Lasso will step aside and leave the government,
after pointing out the president’s controversy.

Guillermo Lasso filled his mouth, calling us “narcos”, which we were critical of. But now, with what was revealed in the El Gran Padrino case, which demonstrates the infiltration of the mafia into high places, he would create drug governments, ”Iza said in a message on the social network Twitter.

Similarly, the leader of the indigenous organization argued that Ecuador “doesn’t deserve this”, so he asked Lasso to “step aside”.
