As the litany of property held illegally by high-ranking officials of the Mejia administration continues to grow, the head of the Oficina Custodia de Bienes Incautados, the caretaker office of confiscated goods, Frank Matos, said that his officers have recovered 40 real estate properties, including villas, apartments, houses and farms, from the hands of former PRD authorities, including members of the National Police and the Armed Forces. Between 70 and 80 vehicles, mostly luxury cars, that were being used by people other than their owners, were also recovered. The Diario Libre says that Matos told them that the number of properties in the hands of former government officials or PRD politicians is three times the number recovered so far. The head of the department did not, however, reveal the names of those individuals from whom the confiscated properties were recovered. The reluctance to make their identities public has been the target of criticism by many in recent days.
