Members of the National Police and the Armed Forces arrived at the site. From the preliminary investigations it was said that these two murders could be linked to the actions of an irregular armed group from Colombia, which would be active in this sector of the border, as a measure to weaken the structure of the Oliver Simisterra Front, which at the time it was led by Walter Arizala, alias Guacho .

It was learned that Darwin Jimbo had a history of possession and possession of substances subject to control. In addition, he was considered part of the network of collaborators of the structure of the Oliver Simisterra Front.

The attacks on the San Lorenzo police command and naval units were attributed to this organization. Also, the kidnapping and murder of three members of the newspaper El Comercio , in 2018. (I)
