Goleada Case: Aquiles Alvarez and his brothers submit documents to prove residency

Mayor Aquiles Alvarez, along with his brothers, submitted documents to demonstrate their residency status following their arrest in the Goleada case.

Aquiles Alvarez, the mayor of Guayaquil, Ecuador, has submitted various documents to demonstrate his residency status after being detained in connection with the Goleada case. Among the submitted documents are his mayoral credentials, a certificate of criminal records, and additional information from Liga Pro. He aims to establish his ties to the community and contest the legal actions taken against him.

His brothers, Antonio and Xavier Alvarez, also contributed digitalized documents that are intended for presentation during the upcoming proceeding where charges will be formulated. The context is critical, as they are part of a larger group of defendants, with the prosecution having requested preventive detention for 10 out of 11 individuals involved in this case, citing various evidences that have surfaced.

The prosecutorial request is significantly motivated by the need to mitigate risks associated with the ongoing investigation. Specific complications arise, such as the request for house arrest for one individual due to their advanced age, highlighting the complexities of the legal proceedings surrounding the case. This situation not only affects those directly involved but also has implications for local governance and public perception of justice in Ecuador.
