Ecuador Assembly
Prepares Amnesty
Ecuadorian assembly
members are preparing
Thursday a proposal to
request amnesty and
pardon for former
officials accused of
political crimes and
people imprisoned for
transporting small
quantities of drugs.
Lenin Hurtado, from the
Democratic Popular
Movement, said his group
supports the request and
recalled they previously
demanded pardon for
those involved in the
Dayuma strike in the
Amazon.
The group expects the
confirmation of a
10-people commission
from Country Alliance
Movement to investigate
each case analyzed by
the head of State in his
speech at the
Constituent Assembly
held in Montecristi
Tuesday.
Maria Paula Romo,
assembly member from
that organization,
stated that several
colleagues are working
to speed up
investigations.
Romo recalled that the
Constituent Assembly
assumed functions of the
National Congress and
for that she is obliged
to start the president's
proposal.
Such commission will be
in charge of analyzing
amnesty for six managers
from the Guarantee and
Deposit Agency, to try
corrupt bankers, former
Head of State Gustavo
Noboa and detainess from
Dayuma and Machachi
outrages. |
