iciHaiti - DR : The 20 Haitians arrested, were released and returned to the border
The 20 Haitians who came to carry out transactions at the border market of Elias Piña, bordering the commune of Belladère, which had been arrested on Monday by the Dominican migration agents without official reason https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-19823-haiti-dr-20-haitians-arrested-for-unknown-reasons.html were finally released on Tuesday morning and escorted back to the border of Elias Piña after checking of their identity.

The victims of this arrest say they do not understand that the Dominicans accused them of being clandestine migrants who wanted to take advantage of the market day to enter the Dominican territory illegally, whereas they are accustomed of the binational market. They say they are outraged at the treatment received and have spent the night without receiving food.

This error of the Dominicans, intervenes in a situation of great pressure of illegal Haitian migrants to the border. In Dajabon, over the past weekend, agents of the Specialized Corps of Terrestrial Border Security (CESFRONT) arrested and returned to Haiti more than 700 undocumented Haitians attempting to illegally enter the Dominican territory.

Those arrested (men, women and children) received food, water and milk before being taken to the Ministry of Immigration, which was responsible for the repatriation to Haiti.

During the weekend operations, several bags of garlic, onions, soups, beer, rum and other smuggled goods from Haiti were seized on the Dominican territory.
