Suspended San Cristobal judge, Willy de Jesús Núñez, has returned from his travels in Panama and has stated that the transfer of Pedro Alejandro Castillo Paniagua “Quirinito”, from Najayo jail to the jail in San Francisco de Macorís was nothing extraordinary.
De Jesús said that the transfer was “routine, as it would be for any other convicted felon, something which was like abc for judicial matters.”
De Jesús Núñez spoke to reporters after leaving the Department of Judicial Branch Inspectorate where he was interviewed about the case for more than two hours.
Following the transfer, Quirinito obtained a domiciliary arrest permit on grounds that he suffered from terminal mouth cancer. After that, his wife presented a death certificate but is not telling where the body is buried or was cremated.
