The Haitian government has agreed to hand over to the Dominican authorities three people accused of being involved in the kidnapping of businessman Miguel de Moya last June. The accused, Juan Miguel Santos, his wife Carmen Dolores Burgos and Nereyda González are now in the Petionville jail. The Dominican ambassador to Haiti says Haitian President Jean Bertrand Aristide gave instructions to speed up their delivery to the DR in the next few days. De Moya was kidnapped on July 1 by a group of armed men on the Duarte Highway near La Vega. The group demanded RD$3 million in exchange for his freedom. The money was collected by his family and friends and delivered to his captors, according to a report in today’s El Siglo. The three Dominicans were found and arrested in August in Port-au-Prince as a result of a joint action by Haitian police and the Dominican Armed Forces’ intelligence division.
