The National Drug Control Department (DNCD) has yet to confirm or deny reports by journalist Cesar Medina that a group of Colombian gangsters have arrived in the DR with the explicit purpose of killing DNCD head Major General Rosado Mateo and Senator Wilton Guerrero, an outspoken anti-drugs crusader. Medina reported that one person has been detained in connection with the plot and that through the suspect's cooperation, the entire plot was revealed. Medina, who is also the Dominican ambassador to Spain, said that if he had not seen the evidence, he would not have believed it, adding that he believes both men are in serious danger. The DNCD has yet to refute the claims, adding a general warning that everyone who is fighting drug crimes are in danger. DNCD spokesman Roberto Lebron said that neither Guerrero nor Mateo has received increased police or military protection.
