The USA deports 100 Dominicans
The group served their sentences for various crimes
LAS AMERICAS AIRPORT. The Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency of the United States deported on Wednesday 100 Dominicans after they served their sentences in the United States.
According to the reports the repatriated locals were delivered by the United States Justice Department, after being evaluated by medical personnel at the time of their release from prison.
With the group of 100 deportees which were repatriated this Wednesday, the total of Dominicans sent to the country during the first three months of this year reached 502.
The locals arrived on board an airplane registered to the federal government and supervised by a group of 14 officers of the Marshall Service, accompanied by their respective files, both medical as well as judicial.
In order to receive the deportees, the migration authorities used three buses which transferred them to the headquarters of the department in the Center of the Heroes, where later they were sent to the department of Deportees at the National Police and the National Directorate for Drug Control (DNCD).
Among the locals that were repatriated there were 69 that were convicted for trafficking and distribution of drugs in cities such as Boston, New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Miami, Jacksonville, Atlanta and others.
Likewise it was explained that among the others there were 21 that committed crimes such as murder, assaults, robberies, and fraud, while the other 20 were convicted on immigration issues and child support.
Dozens of relatives went to the airport of the locals that were being deported. They sought information regarding their family members and explained to reporters that they could not get it in the General Directorate of Migration, accusing the agency of hiding their relatives.
Since Jose Ricardo Taveras took over the General Directorate of Migration, he ordered the personnel not to offer any information regarding repatriated locals, alleging that this is to divert attention of supposed lawyers and private individuals that try to obtain the freedom of the Dominicans as they arrive at the Las Americas International Airport.
