A driver recently released after being arrested for speeding at 264 km/h has been confirmed as part of the major shareholder group of Entel, Chile’s largest telecommunications company. Pablo Izquierdo Reyes was allowed to retain his driver’s license following the incident. Investigations by Fast Check verified that Grupo Izquierdo Menéndez, through Almendral S.A., holds a 54.9% stake in Entel. Izquierdo is linked to Almendral S.A. via his investment company, Inversiones El Manzano Ltda., as documented in Entel’s integrated report. The revelation has sparked public discussion regarding accountability and privilege. This connection was initially circulated widely on social media before being fact-checked and confirmed.
