National Drug Control Department agent Carlos Jose Aquino Castillo has been dismissed for his role in the trafficking ring involving cocaine hidden in yam shipments. Police and DNCD officials say six others have been detained for their links to the ring, which was shipping drugs between the DR and Puerto Rico. Drug leader Euclides Suazo Rivas is on the run and wanted for questioning for his role in the drug ring. Clave Digital reports that Aquino was paid RD$3,000 for every shipment of drugs he confirmed in the city of Bonao. Officials are still investigating a connection between Aquino and the Customs Department. Officials say that Suazo Rivas and his wife Rosanna Maria Gomez, and a group of five brothers used to pack the drugs in Bonao and ship them on the Ferry to Mayaguez, Puerto Rico.
