Presidential drug trafficking advisor Marino Vinicio (Vincho) Castillo has issued a challenge to drug traffickers, saying that if they want a war they can have it wherever they want. Castillo made this statement after meeting with high-ranking military officials at the Ministry of Armed Forces yesterday, adding that the DR is preparing a new strategic plan to fight organized crime. Castillo added that the authorities would not give an inch in the fight against drugs, and that recent crimes, including the case of the dead man found in an SUV, are clear signs that drug traffickers have declared war on the DR. The authorities are under renewed pressure after Peravia Senator Wilton Guerrero embarked on his crusade against alleged complicity between government officials and drug traffickers.
Present at the meeting were Armed Forces Minister Lieutenant General Pedro Rafael Pena Antonio, Police Chief Major General Rafael Guillermo Fermin, president of the Drug Control Department (DNCD) Major General Gilberto Delgado Valdez, director of the National Investigations Department (DNI) Major General Ramon Aquino Garcia, and chiefs of the J2-A2 and M2 military investigation departments.
In related news, the National Police says that 25 to 30 people are under investigation in connection with the 4 August murder of seven people in Bani in a drug-related case.
