Autoridades tratan de contactar familiares extranjero asesinado en el Mirador Norte | Despertar Dominicano

La Polic?a Nacional inform? hoy que realiza una investigaci?n para tratar de establecer contacto con los familiares de Cedric Sergio Jadoe, el ciudadano de Suriname que result? muerto la semana pasada en el Mirador Norte tras recibir tres disparos en la cabeza.

Police in the Dominican Republic have said that they are piecing together the circumstances surrounding the killing last week of Suriname national Sergio Cedric Jadoe.

The 32-year-old man was gunned down last week Thursday in the Mirador Norte neighborhood of the capital Santo Domingo. Local news website listindiario.com quotes police spokesman Jacobo Mateo Moquete, as saying that they are questioning French national Jean Pierre who witnessed the shooting.

Pierre has said that Jadoe had stopped his vehicle Mazda at a busy intersection of the N??ez de C?ceres and R?mulo Betancourt streets to talk to another man who also drove a white vehicle. The other man suddenly pulled a gun, shot Jadoe three times in the head and ran. Jadoe died on the spot. It is not clear whether Pierre was traveling with Jadoe.

Police say that while they do not have a suspect yet, they are also looking at Jadoe?s reasons for being in the Dominican Republic. ?The passport of the foreigner has several continuous in and out stamps for several countries and we are conducting an investigation to determine what the motives were for those trips,? said the spokesman to questions from journalists. He said police are also trying to get in contact with the family of the deceased.

Jadoe is the second Surinamese national to be killed in the Dominican Republic in relatively short time span. The body of a Surinamese man of Hindustani descent was found a few months ago with two bullet wounds to the head. It appeared a settlement among drugs criminals.
