Julio Alfredo Rondon Abreu is accused of being the person responsible for a shipment of 60,000 bullets and 15 semi-automatic pistols seized last week at East Haina Port. The ammunition and pistols of different calibers were discovered in a freight container on the docks at Haina Oriental by members of the Ministry of Defense’s intelligence agency (J2). They were bundled in 600 boxes with an apple juice shipment by the Barcelonica Trans Commercial company. One of its representatives, identified by the authorities as Federico Sosa Guzman, has also been detained.
