Dominican fugitive from justice Frederic Salers Marzouka could be extradited from Brazil to the US, where he is sought for drug trafficking and money laundering charges. He was accused of a National Lottery fraud for RD$90 million when he rigged the winning numbers, as reported in Listin Diario. He fled to Haiti and apparently traveled on to Brazil. He was arrested on 17 February 2006 in an Interpol operation in Rio de Janeiro. A Brazilian court has ruled that the maximum penalty he can receive in the US is 30 years in jail, which is the maximum penalty in Brazil.
