DNCD bust call center drugs ring
posted on: May 14 2010 8:15 by Royston. Viewed 463 times.
The National Drugs Control Agency (DNCD) today announced the dismantling of an international network of drug traffickers sending millions of dollars worth of controlled drugs to the United States.
A DNCD report says this is the first case of its kind found in the Dominican Republic. The operation involved a Call Center, as well as doctors and pharmacies.
Five members of the network, including a Canadian, were arrested on Thursday in various locations. DNCD officers were accompanied on the raids by Deputy Prosecutors and seized about 350 thousand tablets of a substance known as Alprazolam.
Those arrested are Canadian, Rafael Antonio Castillo Aybar and Dominicans, Vidal Rosario Reyes, José Bladimir Hernández Jiménez, Francisco Alberto López and Héctor Antonio Hierro Luna
DNCD also seized three luxury cars used by the gang, plus an illegal gun carried by López Reyes. In the call center they found four crates with hundreds of boxes of Solpidem and Alprazolam pills, Diocam and others. An additional 500 boxes of tablets were found in the vehicles. The substances and vehicles were taken with the suspects to DNCD headquarters.
The detainees are suspected of being part of a network of distributors of controlled substances over the Internet, conducting operations from a Call Center located on the Mella road at the junction with Charles de Gaulle Avenue in Santo Domingo.
Through investigations, which began several months ago, the DNCD discovered that the group procured the drugs from various pharmacies with the help of unidentified doctors.
