The public sees increased surveillance by the nation's drug officials as positive, but drug traffickers are growing restless. The National Drug Control Department (DNCD) has received reports that the drug dealers, specifically those operating in San Francisco de Macoris, have met to discuss murdering the Northeast Chief of the DNCD Raysa de la Cruz, as reported in Hoy. DNCD's Major General Rafael Radhames Ramirez Ferreira warned that the DNCD will not be intimidated. He added that threats have been received also regarding their efforts in La Romana, Higuey, Santiago and Puerto Plata. He said the DNCD has closed down 16,000 drug sales points nationwide.
Major General Ramirez Fereira announced that five DNCD agents on service at the Puerto Plata International Airport were expelled from the organization for lack of compliance with the ethics and morals of the institution. The announcement coincides with the revelation of a major drug bust involving flights from an unnamed Dominican airport to Pearson International Airport in Canada yesterday.
