Juan Francisco I. M.
Juan Francisco I. M. is a lieutenant colonel in the Ecuadorian Air Force (FAE) who has recently been implicated in a legal case concerning the forced disappearance of minors in Las Malvinas. He is accused of being aware of the detention and subsequent disappearance of four children in December 2024 and failing to report the incident. During a recent hearing, he appeared via teleconference and was assigned precautionary measures by a judge, including periodic reporting and a travel ban. His involvement adds to the ongoing investigation, which has already led to other military personnel being processed for similar charges.
