The dust never seems to settle on the Paya drug massacre and connections with other cases continue to emerge. Hoy is reporting that police have arrested the suspected murderer of Spanish national Adolfo Justo Cervantes Arellano, a.k.a. Waiikiki. The paper writes that one of the men involved is Pedro Alejandro Castillo Paniagua (Rafy). Police spokesman Nelson Rosario says he is a nephew of former drug captain Quirino Paulino Castillo, who is standing trial for drug trafficking in New York. Cervantes was initially investigated for the 2008 murder of Army First Lieutenant assigned to the Department of Drug Control (DNCD) Guillermo Antonio Tejada Kranwinkel who was shot in the head as he came out a barbershop in San Cristobal. Police were also loosely tying Cervantes to the Paya drug massacre, in which seven men were shot dead in Bani. However, no report of any connection between Cervantes and the case was released at the time.
Hoy writes that Jovanny Antonio Padilla Santiago (a.k.a. Margaro Morel Otano) and Rumaldo Fernandez, a US deportee, are also suspects in the case. According to Rosario of the Police, the men admitted they had been paid US$30,000 to knock off Cervantes following differences over 259 kilos of cocaine with drug traffickers.
