Bani senator Wilton Guerrero is calling on the authorities to investigate the chief of the National Drug Control Department in Bani. Guerrero says that agents under his command are extorting the people they arrest, as reported in El Caribe. Guerrero says that the DNCD in Bani operates a clandestine court. He said the agents charge to release people who have been arrested. He said that many young people who have been arrested have been extorted, even though they are clean.
"I have received several complaints about the operation of a clandestine court at the DNCD office in Bani and that court is directed by Captain Zenon. It is not a coincidence that there are many claims from people who are very credible," said the ruling PLD party senator for Peravia.
Guerrero says he does not exclude the possibility that fugitive Jose Figueroa Agosto's drug smuggling ring is still operating in the DR.
Guerrero was one of the first to denounce high-level government and military complicity with drug trafficking in the DR.
