Three months later, after heavy consideration, Spain finally agrees to fulfill the request made by Judge Eloy Velasco of the Spanish National Court, to request the extradition of the fifteen Salvadoran military suspects in the Jesuit murder case. Spain will be requesting extradition of two from the United States as well as the remaining thirteen from El Salvador for murder, terrorism and crimes against humanity.
The following are the names of those Spain is seeking to extradite from El Salvador: General Rafael Humberto Larios, former Minister of Defense, and Juan Rafael Bustillo, former commander of the Salvadoran Air Force, sergeants Antonio Ramiro Avalos Vargas and Tomas Castillo Oscar Mariano Amaya Zarpate, Colonel Juan Orlando Zepeda, Francisco Elena Fuentes, Guillermo Alfredo Benavides, Joaquin Arnoldo Cerna, Carlos Mauricio Guzman and Oscar Alberto León Linares, and the lieutenants José Ricardo Espinoza Guerra, Second Lieutenant Gonzalo Guevara Cerritos and Corporal Oscar Mariano Guzman. As well as the two being requested from the United States, Colonel Inocente Orlando Montano and Lieutenant Hector Ulises Cuenca.
Those that are seeking justice and are in support of Judge Velasco, are hoping that these extradition requests will be respected and honored so as not to have a repeat of the Aug 7 trial when 9 previously arrested soldiers were set free due to a failure to request their extradition before issuing arrest warrants.
