The media disclosed that this is not the first time G\u00f3mez is charged with computer hacking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maldonado deposited a request for the custody of the electronic voting equipment used in the election as a precautionary measure until experts investigate the equipment and software used during the primary. Maldonado said the fraud occurred with complicity of individuals inside the JCE. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He described Gomez as a &#8220;dark character in Dominican society,&#8221; who in 2012 was accused of hacking 44 e-mail accounts of politicians and businessmen in the country. Included in these were the emails of then First Lady Margarita Cede\u00f1o. The victims did not pursue the case and the charges against Gomez were dropped. He did serve pre-trial custody time in jail back then but was released after the charges were dropped and the case filed in 2013. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Leonel Fern\u00e1ndez team says that 97,266 votes were taken from Fern\u00e1ndez that should have won with 52%. They allege there were irregularities in 671 voting stations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more in Spanish:<br><a href=\"https:\/\/listindiario.com\/la-republica\/2019\/10\/08\/585935\/equipo-de-leonel-acusa-a-jochy-gomez-de-complicidad-en-supuesto-fraude-en-primarias-del-pld\">Listin Diario<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/n.com.do\/2019\/10\/08\/equipo-politico-leonelista-implica-a-jochy-gomez-en-fraude-electoral\/\">N Digital<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/noticiassin.com\/leonelistas-identifican-a-quien-supuestamente-manipulo-resultados-de-las-primarias\/\">Noticias SIN<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/m.elcaribe.com.do\/2019\/10\/08\/representantes-de-leonel-acusan-a-jochy-gomez-de-interferir-equipos-de-la-junta\/\">El Caribe<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/somospueblo.com\/equipo-de-leonel-acusa-a-jose-angel-jochy-gomez-canaan-de-fraude-en-primarias\/\">Somos Pueblo<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/n.com.do\/2019\/10\/08\/leonelistas-aseguran-tienen-pruebas-irrefutables-del-fraude-electoral\/\">N Digital<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/listindiario.com\/la-republica\/2019\/10\/08\/585949\/quien-es-jochy-gomez-el-acusado-por-el-grupo-de-leonel-del-presunto-fraude-en-las-primarias\">Listin Diario<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/listindiario.com\/la-republica\/2019\/10\/08\/585935\/equipo-de-leonel-acusa-a-jochy-gomez-de-complicidad-en-supuesto-fraude-en-primarias-del-pld\">Listin Diario<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/listindiario.com\/la-republica\/2019\/10\/08\/585997\/equipo-de-leonel-fernandez-denuncian-fueron-manipuladas-671-mesas-en-primarias\">Listin Diario<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>9 October 2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Chamber of Deputies president, Rub\u00e9n Maldonado has accused Jos\u00e9 \u00c1ngel (Jochy) G\u00f3mez Cana\u00e1n of complicity in implementing an electronic fraud to alter the results of the ruling Dominican Liberation Party (PLD) primary that took place on Sunday, 6 October 2019.
