The legal defense of Dutch citizens Dennis Goedee and Urvin Laurence Wawoe (Nuto) have maneuvered to delay the hearing of the Netherlands government request for extradition. The two men are in jail in Najayo in San Cristobal. A third arrested at the same time in 2023, Terrence Ángelo Richard De Vries, voluntarily accepted to be extradited in September 2023.
The men are accused of being key members of the Mocro Maffia and No Limit Soldiers that are linked to contract killing, arms and drug trafficking in Europe.
Among the crimes that Dutch authorities accuse Dennis Goedee and Urvin Laurence Wawoe of are the attempted kidnapping of 18-year-old Princess Amalia and Prime Minister Mark Rutte.
Adjunct prosecutor Andres Chalas Velasquez complained that the hearing has been postponed ten times at the request of the defense of the foreigners. Josefina Gonzalez, the lawyer who represents the Netherlands government, accused Goedee and Urvin Laurence of delaying the hearing to avoid their extradition.
Only after the arrest of Dutch citizens Dennis Goedee, Urbin Laurence Wawoe and Terence Angelo Richard de Vries was it publicly known that these have ties to criminal networks in The Netherlands. In the Dominican Republic, the men led a life of luxury for years, carrying out millionaire investments. It was then known that Goedee at the time was the leading investor in Hard Rock Cafe Santo Domingo. The Hard Rock Café Santo Domingo at Blue Mall was searched and temporarily shut down.
