With obvious signs of violence, the body of the Barranquilla Katherine Paola Jiménez Parra, a 29-year-old nurse who had been living in Guayaquil, Ecuador for 6 years, was found dead.
In dialogue with EL HERALDO, the victim’s sister-in-law said that last Friday, September 18, the woman’s husband had contacted his relatives in the capital of Atlántico to report her disappearance.
“He (Tyron García, Ecuadorian) called us to tell us that he was worried because Katherine did not appear, but on Sunday afternoon he told us that, after several hours of searching, he had found her body with signs of torture and identified it by a small medal and a mole that she had on her back, ”said Gloría Navarro, the victim’s sister-in-law.
According to the Guayaquil media, the woman’s body was found in a vacant lot, behind the El Dorado citadel, at kilometer 5 of the Duran-Tambo road, in that city.
According to Jiménez’s relative, García explained that his wife was “in a state of decomposition, naked, with a blow to the head and no eyes.”
“Katherine was leaving a shopping center located in the north of Guayaquil at 7:00 pm on Friday, after finishing work she told her husband that she would buy food before arriving at the house, located in Durán, but they did not know more than she ”, details the newspaper El Universo, from Ecuador.
Everything is investigated. Family members say that the whole case is under investigation, but they stressed that the woman was in the middle of a separation process.
“We are concerned because in Ecuador there were 2 of her children, ages 3 and 9, and her husband has them, who is the main suspect in the case, since they had problems with her,” explained the relative.
Katherine had met her husband through social media and decided to go to Ecuador as a missionary six years ago.
“She was one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, her husband was also of that religion and she fell in love and left, but she never returned to Barranquilla, although we always talked to her,” Navarro highlighted.
In Barranquilla, the woman had carried out technical studies and it was in Ecuador that she studied nursing.
The victim’s relatives request support and advice from the Foreign Ministry to be able to repatriate the body and pressure the Ecuadorian authorities so that the investigation of the case “is not left halfway.”
This medium contacted the Foreign Ministry to find out what information they had been able to learn about the case, but until the closing of this edition, no response had been obtained.
