Roldan, who went by the alias JR, was accused of several attacks and murders in Ecuador’s prisons.
Roldan’s body disappeared from the vault where he was buried in May, local police told AFP Wednesday . After no one claimed the body, it was buried in a cemetery in Envigado on the outskirts of Medellin, Colombia’s second city, on May 18.
