Banny Rubén Molina

Banny Rubén Molina is a former judge from Manabí, Ecuador, who gained notoriety for granting habeas corpus to controversial figures, including ex-vice president Jorge Glas, amidst allegations of corruption. His judicial decisions, particularly one that allowed a convicted murderer to serve his sentence at home, led to charges of prevarication and associations with organized crime. In a recent ruling, the National Court of Justice ordered the dismissal of his appeal against a three-year prison sentence for prevarication, further complicating his legal troubles amid ongoing investigations into his connections with criminal activities.
