The Public Ministry says that French citizen Christophe Rene Henri Naudin, who has declared guilty of assisting in the escape of two convicted French pilots, will pay a fine of RD$1.5 million for violation of the corresponding human smuggling statutes and penal code of the Dominican Republic.
Naudin admitted to having assisted in the escape of French pilots Jean Fauret and Bruno Armand Odos, who had been sentenced to 20 years in jail for drug trafficking in the so-called Air Cocaine international case.
The Public Ministry said that Naudin would be allowed to return to France where he will serve a five-year sentence in a French prison.
