The remains of one of the two bodies found in a burned-out vehicle in Yamasa are not those of the missing leader of the Dominican Unity Movement (Mundo), Juan Almonte Herrera, according to DNA done in the Patria Rivas Laboratory at journalist Nuria Piera's request.
Initially, one of the victims found in the Mitsubishi appeared to match Almonte's dental records and family members had thought that the body belonged their relative, one of the men the National Police claimed was involved in the kidnapping of young Eduardo Baldera Gomez. The test result complicates the case of Almonte Herrera's disappearance even further, because according to his relatives he was seized by a group of men on 20 September and his vehicle was left abandoned in the street.
In the beginning, before the Baldera Gomez kidnap case had ended with the young man's release, the Police reported that they had detained Almonte Herrera, but this was later changed to a statement saying that he was a fugitive. A Police press release published in El Nacional newspaper on 3 October said: "In relation to this incident (the Baldera kidnapping) the Police arrested Juan Almonte Herrera and seven other people, who have been issued restraining measures".
