Not former president Danilo Medina Sánchez, but rather his brother Alexis Medina Sánchez, is investigated for his participation in anomalies that add up to RD$43.2 billion in hospital procurement.
The Chamber of Accounts is calling ‘anomalies’ Alexis Medina contracts to supply hospitals that the Office of Supervising Engineers was remodeling for State Projects (OISOE). Domedical Supply SRL, belonging to Alexis Medina, billed the OISOE for over RD$43 billion between 2010 and 2020. The Chamber of Accounts 103-page report published on the agency’s website tells a tail of billion peso irregularities that probably would not have occurred if the last name involved was not Medina.
The auditors stated in the Diario Libre that “this is just the start of our reports…”
Meanwhile, former President Danilo Medina was active on Sunday, 28 November 2021 swearing-in new followers of the former ruling Dominican Liberation Party (PLD). He urged his followers to organize for the victory of the party in the 2024 general elections.
“We have an obligation to tell the story of our party in every corner of the country. We have to tell our own story and say what we know about the Partido de la Liberación Dominicana. We are not the caricature of the party that they have wanted to present to the country. We are the party that has transformed the Dominican Republic for the better,” Medina told his followers.
