Peravia Senator Wilton Guerrero Dume complained that the commission appointed by the President to investigate the suspected drug-related murder of six in Bani did not consult with organizations that he deems are truly representative of Bani, nor did it go about the investigation in a scientific way. The Presidential commission, that former district attorney Guillermo Moreno said was illegal, was composed of attorney general Radhames Jimenez Pena, the minister of Armed Forces Lieutenant General Ramon Antonio Garcia Aquino, and the chief of the Police, Major General Rafael Guillermo Guzman Fermin.
El Nuevo Diario reports that Guerrero accused attorney general Radhames Jimenez Pena of having close ties (vinculo de compadreo) with General Gonzalez.
He complained that the attorney general had received information that linked General Gonzalez to crime, but he ignored the information leads provided by Guerrero.
He called the commission "comedy", and said that those appointed by the President pre-selected those who would comment on the General and sought pre-stated answers to clear the conduct of General Gonzalez. Guerrero urged that President Fernandez not be misled by the document.
The commission concluded that there were no ties of Hilario Gonzalez to organized crime and recommended the transfer to another location of Hilario Gonzalez y Gonzalez and rear admirals Gustavo Rojas Vera y Juan Victor Sosa Ruiz.
"The problem is not Bani, where social decomposition has exploded. There are other provinces that are worse than Bani, where drug trafficking has taken over society. Persons that we think are lambs are tied to drug trafficking. And if we continue without combating drug trafficking, nothing of what we do will be any good, because we will have handed the country to drug dealers on a silver platter," he said.
