District Prosecutor for the National District Alejandro Moscoso Segarra says that officials have found no proof that Sobeida Felix (Feliz) or Jose A. Figueroa are still in the country. The couple sought on drug-related charges disappeared into thin air over a month ago, on two separate occasions. It had been rumored that Felix might still be in the country after the heads of the National Drug Control Department and the National Police personally took part in a raid on a plastic surgery clinic. There have also been claims that the Migration Department's computers were hacked and records amended to suggest that Felix left the country on a flight to Spain, but Spanish officials say that no-one named Felix or Feliz has arrived in Spain.
Presidential Advisor to the Presidency on Drug Matters, lawyer Marino "Vincho" Castillo, believes Felix is still in the DR. Prosecutor Moscoso has asked Castillo to support his statement.
In an opinion piece in El Caribe today, on the same subject, lawyer Leila Mejia speculates that Sobeida is likely still here. She concludes this on grounds of the lax surveillance the government exercised after she was released on bail. Mejia comments that while even her phone is intervened, the government doesn't acknowledge having done the same with Sobeida's phone. She also makes the point that there is no truth in the statements of the Prosecutor General and the District Prosecutor when they excuse the lax surveillance on Sobeida on grounds that it was not legal to do so. Mejia says that any first level judge would have authorized telephone surveillance in this case. She concludes: "Perhaps Sobeida afterall is still in the country because, in what other place would she find such impunity?"
