The Ministry of Foreign Relations is denying reports that an advisor to the Dominican Embassy in Haiti and Consul to the Plateau Central based in Belladere, Andres Bocio Fortuna, was relieved of his diplomatic duties two months ago after an investigation revealed that he was suspected of forging visas used to traffic Haitians across the border. Deputy minister of Consular Affairs Rosario Graciano de los Santos says that the Ministry is awaiting the end of legal proceedings in order to determine whether a dismissal is merited. Bocio is investigated for association with Alberto Brito Sanchez, the supposed head of a mafia that conned people through visa scams, who is under arrest and awaiting trial in La Vega.
Bocio says he is innocent and has nothing to do with Brito and that "just because a man comes near you shouldn't mean that you are guilty". Bocio added that even some of his own family members had been conned by Brito.
