Major General Jose Armando Polanco Gomez has told reporters in Higuey that the commission that he appointed has continued to investigate the killing of alleged drug trafficker Junior Javier Minaya German (a.k.a. Gilbert). He added that the pursuit of the remaining members of the gang that he allegedly led in the Guajimia sector of Herrera would continue and that they would find Edwin Omar Cabrera (El Muerto). He said: “We are going to arrest and arraign everyone connected with these crimes and incidents committed by this gang. It does not matter who they are… and we are investigating the actions and possible involvement of any civilian or police authority.” He noted that two police officers who were working as bodyguards for one of the wives of El Muerto were arrested near the funeral parlor where the wake for Gilbert was being held.
