Ecuador MPs seek Colombia asylum

At least four Ecuadorian MPs have sought political asylum in Colombia after a state prosecutor issued warrants for their arrests for treason.

More are expected to follow, according to one of the MPs, Gloria Gallardo.

Some 24 MPs have been accused of rising against the government, out of a total of 50 MPs who were fired last month and reinstated on Monday.
