Gustavo Larrea

Gustavo Larrea is a former Interior Minister of Ecuador[1] who had been appointed in 2006.[2] A commission set up by President Rafael Correa to investigate Operacion Fenix alleged that Larrea had direct links to FARC,[3] which Larrea disputed.[4] By 2011 Larrea had become a notable critic of President Correa, particularly in regard to an effort to "revamp" the judicial system. Larrea called this idea "an authoritarian project" and an attempt to "control the courts."[5]
