iciHaiti - DR : Arrest of a Dominican transporting 17 illegal Haitians piled up in a car
12/06/2020 11:08:02

Members of the northwest directorate of the Dominican National Police (PND) arrested a Dominican Robinson Cabrera Pérez (37) in the province of Valverde (northwest) who was transporting 17 Haitians without papers, including two children aged six months to a year, incredibly crowded into a Toyota Camry car registered A347614.

The police informed that two of the Haitians were transported in the trunk of the car and exposed to death by suffocation. The driver tried to escape by detours after being discovered by police and military agents on the Mao-Santiago Rodríguez highway, according to the police report.

Robinson Cabrera Pérez is questioned to find out if he is part of an international human trafficking network from Haiti to the Dominican Republic.

Haitians were turned over to the Immigration Service for registration and repatriation to Haiti.
