National Drug Control Agency (DNCD) officers have confiscated 13 packets of a white powder, presumably cocaine or heroin. Eight packets were taken from inside an SUV on the Duarte Highway, thought to be part of an international drug network and the other four from a Venezuelan man travelling to Madrid from Las Americas international airport.
The man in the SUV, reportedly from San Francisco de Macoris, had been arrested along with three Colombians in a raid in August 2012, in possession of 31 portions of cocaine.
