Seven mass murders since 2021
From February 2021 in Ecuador there have been seven massacres in prisons, which are considered among the worst in Latin America.
A pacification committee set up by President Guillermo Lasso said in a report last April that Ecuadorian prisons “are considered human warehouses and centers of torture.”
SNAI noted that “It’s Fundamental” to have statistical information on penitentiary institutions for the “development of public policies and the implementation of strategies that create better and greater opportunities for the rehabilitation and social reintegration” of prisoners.
The government has linked the massacres to the dismembered and burned bodies to a dispute between drug-trafficking gangs that seek to control drug-selling territories inside and outside prisons.
Situated between Colombia and Peru, the world’s largest producers of cocaine, Ecuador is facing an increase in drug trafficking and crime.
In 2021, a record 210 tons of drugs were seized in a country of 18 million people. In the same year, the homicide rate nearly doubled to 14 homicides per 100,000 people.
