On 9 August 2023, eleven days before the 2023 Ecuadorian general election, presidential candidate Fernando Villavicencio was assassinated after leaving a campaign rally in Quito, the capital of Ecuador. One assailant was killed during the attack. Several bystanders, including security personnel and a legislative candidate, were injured. In November 2025, a prosecution witness stated that the murder was ordered by drug traficker Leandro Norero after journalist Christian Zurita supposedly solicited money from Norero to hide an investigation against him. According to the witness, Villavicencio continued publishing information about the case after the money was paid, so Norero ordered his killing.
