He had an Interpol red notice against him, indicating that he was wanted internationally for the serious crime. The arrest was made upon his arrival at the Guayaquil airport following his deportation from the United States, where he had been living before being returned to Ecuador.

Luis V.'s apprehension is a result of coordinated efforts between Ecuadorian authorities and international organizations, showcasing how cross-border cooperation can assist in addressing issues related to crime. The police reported that the judicial authorities in Ecuador had been actively pursuing his location and wanted him returned to face charges linked to the crime of sexual abuse. The case underlines the challenges faced by legal systems in one country in enforcing accountability when individuals commit crimes in another country.

The capture emphasizes the importance of international collaboration in dealing with criminal activities that cross borders. Luis V. is now in the custody of Ecuadorian justice, where he will face legal proceedings related to the charges against him. This case highlights ongoing concerns in the region about sexual crimes and the need for effective measures to protect vulnerable populations such as children, alongside proper legal accountability for offenders.
