Alvarez is also under investigation in a separate case for alleged illegal sales of subsidized gasoline.
He was not wearing his court-ordered ankle monitoring device at the time of his arrest.
Alvarez, who was elected mayor of Guayaquil two years ago, denies all charges.
He's a member of the left-wing opposition party and a vocal critic of the current president's tough crime policies.
Guayaquil, Ecuador's major commercial port, is also key in cocaine shipments from South America to the U.S.
and Europe.
Its murder rate has skyrocketed as rival local gangs and international crime cartels battle for control.

Relatives and friends of political prisoners continue waiting in front of the infamous prison known as El Acorde, waiting the promised releases.
The mountainous, multi-level building was designed to be a shopping center, but is known as the most feared detention facility in the country.
In announcing the release on Thursday, Venezuela's congressional leader, Jorge Rodriguez, the brother of the interim president, said the move should be considered a gesture seeking peace.
Those released so far include members of the political party led by Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Corina Machado and five Spanish citizens.
Human rights groups decry the paltry number of releases and say more than 800 political opponents remain imprisoned.
Carrie Khan, NPR News, Bogota, Colombia.
Machado has posted little publicly since U.S.
Special Forces removed Maduro and his wife.
Speaking on Fox News, Machado said she wants to share her Nobel Peace Prize with President Trump.
After spending most of the interview exalting Trump, Machado said her opposition party will come to power.
Okay.
Trump broke with Machado following the US military action, backing Maduro's vice president, who has since been appointed Venezuela's new interim leader.
