SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic – Dominican officials say drug and money-laundering investigators joined by U.S. federal agents have raided a villa linked to one of Venezuela's richest men.

Billionaire Samark López Bello was recently indicted by federal prosecutors in New York for allegedly violating sanctions on Venezuela. He has close ties to former Venezuelan Vice President Tareck El Aissami, who is accused by the U.S. of links to Hezbollah and drug traffickers.

So they got watches and a Range Rover. At least they will know the time to pick up the guagua every week from the car mechanic.
You think if they had a warrant for him they would have made sure he was in the country before a raid ?

Yeah why do a raid if he ins't there, and release details to the media? Strange.

If they got the watches and the Range Rover, why not confiscate the residence?

There are some very expensive timepieces within that collection. I would not leave them in Venezuela. He's not the first, nor the last.

What's probably left out in the article that is way way more valuable than the car and watches is the files and paperwork showing all of the overseas location of the bank accounts holding his illicit funds.
