Retired ballplayer Luis Castillo was in the Dominican Republic on Friday to present documentation to clear his name from the Cesar Emilio Peralta drug case. The Justice Ministry reportedly accepted the documentation as valid and will not press the charges announced last week by the Attorney General in a press conference.

Castillo was mentioned in the drug case together with fellow MLB player Octavio Dotel. Dotel was cleared from the case but had to post bail anyway after a sweep of his house found he had unauthorized firearms.
