The Sobeida Feliz case has become so intriguing, providing fodder for the tabloids and the imagination, that it has distracted attention from the wider case involving her alleged lover, fugitive drug baron Jose Figueroa Agosto (sentenced to 209 years in Puerto Rico on drug trafficking charges) and US$4.6 million found in a luxury SUV in her possession in Santo Domingo. The case has taken some odd twists and turns, the latest being a set of photos published by El Nacional that have led people to ask, "Is that Sobeida?"
Feliz was reported missing on 3 November, but according to rumors, she could be trying to have plastic surgery to alter her appearance. This resulted in a mysterious visit by Police and DNCD officials to a private clinic in Santo Domingo, after they reportedly received a tip-off about Sobeida's location.
The photos published by El Nacional give credence to the rumor that Feliz may have been captured by rival drug-traffickers. The National Department of Investigations and the National Forensic Science Institute (INACIF) are now studying the photos to establish whether they are genuine.
This has all conveniently helped the public to forget that Figueroa, the far bigger fish, is still on the run, with no clues about his whereabouts.
The authorities have even put up a RD$1 million reward for any information that leads to Sobeida's capture. Anyone with any information is asked to call 1-809-200-1420.
Meanwhile, District prosecutor Alejandro Moscoso Segarra has gone on the record saying that her husband, Eddy Brito, who is also out on bail, should be in jail to prevent him from absconding.
