A report released yesterday tells how a drug trafficker, Carlos Morales Davila, now in jail in Puerto Rico, used the dock belonging to villa Number 17 Los Almendros in Casa de Campo, in La Romana, to get cocaine out of the country and on its way to its final destination, Puerto Rico, or to Florida. According to the report, the arrest in Puerto Rico of the alleged drug dealer unleashed a scandal in the Dominican Republic caused by the release by an interim judge of four members of the cocaine trafficking network led by Morales Davila. Information obtained also shows that Morales Davila traveled frequently to the Dominican Republic using the identity of Ricardo Torres. The federal authorities of Puerto Rico consider him to be the last major drug trafficker arrested and say he had a criminal structure that operated in La Romana. It can be deduced from the report mentioned, obtained by Diario Libre in the Second Court of Instruction, that Miguel Angel Espinal, Feliz Evangelista Sanchez, Roberto Antonio Mendoza and Eddy Antonio Martinez formed part of this "powerful structure."

These four individuals were arrested by DEA and DNCD agents in mid-December 2010, and were promptly released by the Magistrate Awilda Ines Reyes Beltre, acting as the interim Judge in the Second Court of Instruction of the National District. Morales Davila and his four associates are facing charges in a Florida court for alleged conspiracy to take 310 kilos of cocaine to the United States. If they are found guilty, they could face life sentences, according to the evidence presented by the prosecutor in the United States. This case also led to the arrest of the Puerto Rican Sueneily Rodriguez Arroyo, who tried to flee on the day of the search of the villa in Casa de Campo. He tried to get away in a white Nissan Pathfinder that belonged to Morales Davila. The authorities seized four vehicles, cash in dollars and pesos, several cell phones, jewelry, United States passports and other belongings.

During the operation Juan Hilario Navarro Nunez was also arrested. He fled in a red Toyota Land Cruiser that belonged to Ricardo Torres (Canito), who, at the request of the latter, picked up the vehicle at the villa located on Cana Block 25 in Casa de Campo. During the operation the DEA and DNCD officers took down Roy Francisco Sanchez Somora in Santo Domingo East, as he was behind the wheel of his vehicle, a white Mercedes-Benz SUV. He was in possession of a 9mm Berza pistol with 13 shots in the clip, a Chopard watch, a gold chain, a ring, the sum of RD$5,229 and other belongings which were confiscated.
