The news in Diario Libre of the huge series of arrests is combined with two stories in El Nuevo Diario about large drugs bust by the DNCD. It appears that the DNI and the National Drug Control Agency are struggling for headlines. Both are successful in their quest. The DNCD announced the arrest of a trader and a mechanic with two bags full of cocaine in San Jose de Ocoa. In the meantime, DNCD agents working with Interpol arrested an Italian citizen with a suitcase full of cocaine in the very parking lot of the Italian Embassy in Santo Domingo.
