Argenis Contreras / Listín Diario

Argenis Contreras, one of those accused of the murder of the university professor and lawyer, Yuniol Ramírez, is now on the website of the International Police Criminal Organization website (Interpol).

The charges against him are that he fled the Dominican Republic at midday on 12 October 2017, and is charged with murder, administrative corruption, bribery and fraud.

He has now been absent from the country for four months but no one knows his whereabouts. The Dutch authorities believe that he is in Holland.

He is accused of the murder of Ramirez whose body was found in a stream in Manoguayabo, Santo Domingo West, tied down with two concrete blocks on the same 12 October 2017, when he fled the country.

Even though the head prosecutor for Santo Domingo, Olga Diná Llaverías, immediately requested an international arrest warrant after the incident, he has only been on the website as part of the 19 most wanted Dominicans for the last few days.
