Identified as the intermediary between the masterminds and the perpetrators of the murder. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A woman surnamed Chac\u00f3n Guill\u00e9n, 30, arrested on a public street. Identified as the intermediary\u2019s wife, who allegedly paid 50,000 colones (about 100 dollars) for the transport of those involved. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A man surnamed Cordero Robles, 23, arrested during one of the raids in the Le\u00f3n XIII neighborhood of San Jos\u00e9. Believed to be one of the drivers involved. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A man surnamed Castro P\u00e9rez, 33, arrested on a public street. Also believed to be one of the drivers involved.<br\/> <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>The OIJ is still searching for a man surnamed Carvajal, 20, who is believed to be the gunman. Efforts to capture him are underway.<br\/> <\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cA young man, apparently 20 years old and surnamed Carvajal, is the one who entered the condominium and committed the homicide. But according to the investigation, we also identified\u2014for the first time\u2014an intermediary, something that didn\u2019t happen in the (Joao) Maldonado case,\u201d OIJ director Z\u00fa\u00f1iga told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teletica.com\/nacional\/oij-realiza-allanamientos-para-detener-a-sospechosos-de-asesinar-a-exmilitar-nicaraguense_392289\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Teletica<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThis intermediary, surnamed Chaves, was also at the scene. He shared a motorcycle with the suspected hitman and also shared transport with another person. The three of them are directly linked to the murder,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n<p>All the suspects are Costa Rican nationals and allegedly carried out the crime \u201cfor hire,\u201d according to the OIJ director. The intellectual authors of the murder have not yet been identified.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Roberto Samcam, 67,<a href=\"https:\/\/confidencial.digital\/politica\/samcam-se-uso-armamento-de-uso-exclusivo-del-ejercito\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> was a strong critic of the Nicaraguan Army<\/a> for its role in the repression and killing of unarmed citizens during the 2018 protests. He died after being shot twice in the leg, twice in the abdomen, and multiple times in the chest and underarms.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-crimen-habria-sido-ordenado-desde-nicaragua\">Crime Allegedly Ordered from Nicaragua<\/h2>\n\n<p>During the raids, Attorney General Carlo D\u00edaz highlighted the speed with which the case has progressed and did not rule out the possibility that the crime had a political motive.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cOne line of investigation suggests that this was apparently an order from the Nicaraguan Army. We will not be satisfied with merely arresting those who carried out the execution; we will go to the fullest extent to determine who ordered this homicide,\u201d D\u00edaz stated.<\/p>\n\n<p>He emphasized that the investigation remains open to fully identify the intellectual authors of the crime.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-sicarios-llegaron-hasta-la-puerta-de-su-casa\"><strong>Hitmen Reached His Front Door<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>According to information from the OIJ, two people in a vehicle approached the apartment complex where Samcam lived.
