Juan Julio (Johnny) Morales, to whom the judge who reviewed the case against board of directors of the Plan Renove transport plan of the past government ordered domiciliary arrest, is missing. According to the Listin Diario, despite being place under domiciliary arrest, Listin reporters could not locate Morales at his Avenida Bolivar 1005 (2005) residence nor at his San Cristobal vacation home.
Meanwhile, District Attorney Jose Manuel Hernandez Peguero advocated that controls be established for future domiciliary arrests and that they be accompanied by impediments to leave the country. These measures would prevent such cases as that of a man from Santiago who, despite an order of house arrest, managed to leave the country. Hernandez Peguero complained that those who receive these court instructions can easily violate them because vigilance has not been established. He said that in the future, an agreement must be made with National Police Chief Major General Manuel de Jesus Perez Sanchez to implement adequate controls.
Department for the Prevention of Corruption director Octavio Lister told the Listin Diario that an order for domiciliary arrest is like rewarding a person who has perpetrated a fraud against the public treasury.
