Btw, a Chinese store owner around there has been arrested and will be prosecuted by hiring illegal immigrants from Haiti only.

Migración moved in the area of avenida Duarte, París, Martí, etc. I don’t know if it went as far south as Parque Enriquillo.

It was Duarte's turn last week.
This week too?

Santo Domingo.- The General Directorate of Immigration (DGM) in the Dominican Republic announced legal action against the owner of the Mudan store, a Chinese national, for obstructing an immigration enforcement operation and attacking law enforcement officers. The incident took place on Duarte Avenue in the National District during a joint operation with the Armed Forces and National Police, where 35 undocumented Haitian workers—both men and women—were detained.

The operation was conducted under General Immigration Law No. 285-04, which authorizes workplace inspections to ensure compliance with legal hiring practices for foreign nationals. According to the DGM, the store owner—previously reported for employing undocumented migrants—actively resisted the intervention, incited violence among workers, and verbally assaulted officers, causing several injuries.

Due to the aggressive confrontation, officials used moderate force to control the situation but postponed the business owner’s arrest to avoid further escalation. The DGM reaffirmed its commitment to upholding immigration laws and urged employers to comply with legal standards, warning that employing undocumented workers promotes labor exploitation, tax evasion, and unsafe working conditions

The owner got pretty testy with the migration folks. Bet he won't do that again.
