Drug kingpin arrested in Moca

National Drug Control Agency (DNCD) spokesman Miguel Medina says that over the weekend of 14-15 June the DNCD and the Public Prosecution Service confiscated 29 new vehicles from Auto Modelo on kilometer 15 of the Santiago-Moca road.

The dealership is owned by Geovanny Antonio Rodriguez Abreu alias Georgy, who is believed to be one of the heads of a drug network with links to New York and other US cities.

They also confiscated an industrial unit, a speedboat, and two homes, presumed to belong to Rodriguez Abreu and another man identified as Jose Francisco Garcia Almonte (El Pelu), who was also arrested in connection with the confiscation of thousands of dollars in Gurabo, Santiago.

According to the DNCD, the network was involved in sending drugs to the US and France from several airports and seaports in the Dominican Republic concealed in consignments of vegetable produce.
