Tonight, relatives of the Dominicans are celebrating in the La Cerca de Bajos de Haina sector, in San Cristóbal, that the brothers were released. They said that her mother received a call informing her that they were now free.
The kidnapping took place last Saturday the 20th, before 9:30 p.m., in Martissant, at the southern entrance to Port-au-Prince, the Haitian capital.
The Dominicans were returning with a filming group from Jacmel, in a convoy made up of 17 vehicles, in which there were eight embedded policemen dressed in civilian clothes. According to a witness, at those moments, a white Toyota Hilux pickup, with dark windows and an official government license plate, broke up the convoy, four heavily armed individuals getting out of the vehicle. The armed men, pointing their weapons, demanded that the three hostages get into the truck. The captors demanded two million dollars for the release.
