Santo Domingo.- Justice Ministry Anti-Money Laundering Unit director Daniel Miranda today said it’s a weakness in the policy the fact that drug traffickers convicted in the US, can enjoy the seized properties when they return.

He said he prefers to identify the assets before apprehending a criminal, to assign them to the requesting country after conviction, where the Dominican authorities can also start prosecution in the country.

Miranda called the current loophole a disease which has been detected and needs to be cured, the put an end to what says is a mockery of criminals who’re claiming seized assets. “They hide those assets, they stash them away, and when they serve their time there, come back and enjoy them here, declare themselves insolvent over there, but they’re rich here.”

yes I agree completely with Miranda ..and now he has to do all the searches to find these properties which will be in many different names and certainly not in the name of the criminal

Again the main disease that needs to be CURE IS THE WIDESPREAD CORRUPTION OF GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS. Some don't understand that a country that has no examples for the young and old can't be hiding behind the criminal activities of others. This is the situation, a new president will take power and everyone knows that all who supported him want a piece of the cake. The president gets the bigger piece while all others a lesser and lesser . They all become multi-millionaire in dollars and euro. You asked the guy in the street corner peddling drug and he or she will tell you Felix Bautista was a helper in a bodega in New York, now he even has his own private helicopter and a mansion to landed on. You look at all of those politician and government officials and they are all millionaire. Yet, they want to portrayed these other people like if they are the worst. In my opinion they the politicians and gov.officials are to blame cause what do they leave for rest?
