[Regnum] At least 31 people have been victims of clashes in a prison in the Ecuadorian city of Guayaquil, Ecuador's prosecutor general's office said in a microblog. Another 14 people were injured. The situation in the institution is now under control. Because of the incident, the department opened two criminal cases, one of which concerns an article on terrorism. Riots broke out in several prisons in Ecuador on 23 July. In five institutions, prisoners took hostage about 90 correctional officers. As IA Regnum reported, in early April, in the province of Guyas in Ecuador, a shootout took place in a prison between the gangs R7 and Los Lobos. As a result of the incident, three people died and another was injured. On July 23, in the Ecuadorian city of Manta, the mayor of this locality, Agustin Intriago, was killed. Four more people were also injured, two of whom participated in the attack on the official. |
