💨 Abstract

UN Special Rapporteur for Torture Alice Edwards has expressed concern over allegations of torture against Ecuador's former Vice President Jorge Glas, who is currently detained at La Roca prison. The allegations include dislocated thumbs, lacerations, and contusions, suggesting physical beatings. Glas was arrested in April after seeking asylum in Mexico's embassy, an action his supporters consider politically motivated.
