Jorge David Glas Espinel
Jorge Glas Espinel is an Ecuadorian politician who served as the Vice President of Ecuador from 2013 to 2017 under President Rafael Correa. He has been a controversial figure in Ecuadorian politics, particularly due to his legal troubles and subsequent imprisonment on corruption charges. His case has drawn international attention, especially regarding human rights concerns and the treatment he has received while incarcerated. Recently, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (CIDH) has intervened in his situation, urging for the protection of his rights and health, as Mexico offered him political asylum following his illegal abduction from their embassy in Quito.
