Santo Domingo.- Governmental Ethics director Marino Vinicio Castillo again criticized the Justice Minister’s request to resume prosecution on corruption charges against senator Felix Bautista and affirmed the initiative is because the ex president Leonel Fernandez is a hurdle to his presidential hopes.

Castillo said the Penal Code stipulates that a prosecution file can be resumed only if the circumstances that sustain it change.

He said the circumstances were that "while Leonel Fernandez was President, that (Bautista’s indictment) wasn’t possible.

The official said Fernandez was a political obstacle because of his close ties with Bautista.

He noted that Justice minister Francisco Dominguez was one of the presidential hopefuls of the ruling PLD party, and since President Medina cannot seek reelection, the PLD’s candidate for the 2016 elections would be Fernández.

in his TV program “La Respuesta,” Castillo said Domínguez should’ve consulted the President on a measure of such magnitude, even if it leads to his resignation.

On Monday the official reiterated that Dominguez should revisit “all corruption cases,” and not be selective.

"Dominguez should revisit “all corruption cases,” and not be selective."

"BICHO" is scared to death that if the Attorney General is successful moving forward a prosecution against Lie-onel's bagman Felix Bautista , the whole Corrupt PURPLE House of Cards they have constructed in their 12 Narco years will come crashing down!

A journey starts with a single step, and this is a very good first step indeed. Let the show go on the road, everyone needs their day in the sun. Dominguez wants some day light and a lot of the Lionel crown want shadows and darkness. Someone in politics with political asperations - is that news.

This shows how WEAK Saint Danilo is; that this fascist neanderthal is interfering with the rule of law and is in open rebellion with the separation of powers under the Dominican Constitution by attacking the Attorney General's justified investigation into the corruption allegations and Danilo sits on his hands!

Who is the president "BICHO" or Danilo Medina?

Don't give up, señor Domínguez Brito. The few people with balls like you are the only hope for this politically completely rotten and corrupt country.
