Police in Bonao are investigating an attack in which two young Taiwanese citizens were killed and four others injured at a farm on the 79th kilometer of the Duarte Highway. Twelve people have been detained in connection with the murders as police have searched in the surrounding towns for the suspected assailants. The bodies of Hoo Cheng Yin (22) and Gon Cheng Juey (19) were taken to the Regional Institute of Pathology in Santiago and then to a funeral parlor in Santo Domingo. Representatives from the Chinese Republic Development Office joined family members in mourning yesterday as a gesture of solidarity, according to Diario Libre. Police say that the assailants showed up at the ranch, held the victims at gunpoint and shot them several times. The Taiwanese students were conducting tests at the ranch when they were confronted by the assailants, who later escaped in SUVs, which were eventually recovered by the police. The victims' parents are due to arrive in the country to take their children's bodies home tomorrow. Police believe that this was a revenge attack, but say they do not have enough information to determine whether this is true or not.
