The relatives of a Naval officer shot to death upon arriving home in Santo Domingo attribute his death to his refusal to collaborate with people trafficking in Miches, where he was stationed. As reported in El Caribe, Naval officer Juan Urena Santana arrived at his home at 9:00pm from his base in Miches for a month and a half leave. By 1:00am he was dead. He had gone out for beers with friends and when he returned at around 1:00am he was shot to death by four men. His wife is demanding an investigation into her husband's murder. Urena had 21 years service in the Navy. "He was posted where money moves to allow for the illegal boat trips, where one can get lots of money, and look how we were living," she said. His brother Papi Urena said that he was murdered because he stopped a trip to Puerto Rico. Some three years ago, the officer had discovered a cache of illegal drugs when he was stationed at Macao. He was relocated from that post. The officer was known for his hard stand against illegal boat trips and drug smuggling wherever he was stationed.
