Air Force Major General Gilberto Delgado is the new president of the National Drug Control Department. The former president, General Rafael Ramirez Ferreira is the new Inspector General of the Armed Forces. Other appointments include Alejandro Moscoso Segarra, new National District prosecutor, replacing Jose Manuel Hernandez Peguero. Lino Vasquez Samuel was appointed new coordinator of the Commission for Reform and Modernization of Justice, a position previously held by Moscoso. Former Minister of the Armed Forces, General Ramon Antonio Aquino Garcia was sent to the National Investigations Department, the local FBI. He replaces Sigfrido Pared Perez, brother of Senate president Reinaldo Pared Perez.
General Miguel Angel Alvarez was appointed director of the Specialized Port Security Corps (CESEP). General Carlos Robles Diaz will replace General Juan Bautista Rojas Tabar as head of the Specialized Airport Security Corps (CESA). General Santo Domingo Guerrero Clase will replace General Gustavo Jorge Garcia as director of the Specialized Border Security Corps (CESFRONT). General Henry Gomez Bueno was appointed new chief of the Tourism Police.
Yesterday, President Fernandez also appointed 66 generals to new positions in the Armed Forces and the Police. General Hilario Gonzalez Gonzalez, who was in charge of police forces in the south of the country where recently a six-person drug-related murder occurred, was replaced by General Francisco Abreu Montes de Oca.
These changes come in the wake of accusations by Senator Wilton Guerrero of law enforcement authorities complicity with drug dealers. Wilton Guerrero asked for a "poor general" to be sent to Peravia province. He said that many generals are very wealthy despite the fact that none of them are businessmen or have won the lottery.
President Fernandez on the same day confirmed Simon Lizardo in his post as controller general of the country.
