Heinz Moeller Freile, a 50-year-old lawyer, will succeed Luis Robles Plaza as Ecuador's interior minister, Information Minister Marco Lara announced Friday. Robles Plaza resigned Thursday night, three days before national elections. He said in a television address that he was ending his political career because he did not want to cast a shadow over elections on Sunday, in which Ecuadoreans vote for a new president, vice president and members of congress.
