On Monday, 18 April, Judge Claribel Nivar ordered Nin to three months preventive custody at Najayo and set the date for the start of the preliminary trial against her as 9 May.
Leavy Nin Batista, 33, wife of Puerto Rican drug capo Jose Figueroa Agosto, had arrived in Santo Domingo from Spain on Saturday, as reported in Listin Diario.
She is facing charges including money laundering, forgery and criminal association in the DR. She left the DR shortly after her husband Figueroa Agosto evaded arrest in September 2009.
Figueroa Agosto was subsequently arrested in Puerto Rico where he is due to stand trial on drug trafficking charges. He had already been tried for murder, but escaped from a Puerto Rican jail and fled to the DR where he lived for around 10 years.
Nin Batista arrived on an Air Europa flight from Madrid in the custody of five Spanish police agents. She was met at Las Americas Airport by National District prosecutor Alejandro Moscoso Segarra and taken to the Ciudad Nueva Justice Palace, where she spent the evening.
Moscoso Segarra said that if Nin Batista had not turned herself in voluntarily, she would have been arrested by the Spanish authorities. He said the talks that led to her return to the DR lasted three months.
The Dominican media focused on Leavy Nin's new look, which was very different from the photo shown upon her departure. She arrived with the daughter she had with Figueroa Agosto. As reported in El Caribe, she has negotiated an agreement whereby her daughter would be sent to stay with Figueroa Agosto's relatives in Puerto Rico.
