With the point of view of the deputy Héctor Darío Féliz Féliz in the case of drug trafficking and money laundering Falcón, add the three deputies linked by the authorities in organized crime in just over a year.
Still Féliz Féliz, of the Modern Revolutionary Party (PRD), puts himself at the disposal of justice and says that I only “gave a ball to a friend.”
The other two legislators are from the Modern Revolutionary Party (PRM): Miguel Gutiérrez Díaz, detained in the United States; and the re-elected deputy for La Vega, Rosa Amalia Pilarte López. In common they must be the most voted of their jurisdictions in the July 5, 2020 elections.
The first of the cases was that of Pilarte López in the middle of the election campaign in June 2020, when her husband Miguel Arturo López Florencio was captured, identified by the Public Ministry as the head of an asset laundering network product of the drug trafficking and who allegedly carried out financial mobilizations for more than 7 billion pesos.
Along with the couple, two children of both were also linked, subject to the courts, except the legislator.
But what happened to Pilarte López? She had the favor of the vote and was re-elected, so she retains parliamentary immunity and cannot be prosecuted unless the Supreme Court appoints a special judge.
Just last June, a year after these violations of domicile, the Public Ministry requested the Supreme Court of Justice to appoint a special judge to control the investigation into money laundering from the drug trafficking, imputed to the deputy Rosa Amalia Pilarte López, identified as a member of an alleged network led by her husband.
Deputy Attorney General Pere Innocenci Amador Espinosa has referred the matter to the President of the Supreme Court of Justice, Luis Henry Molina, to appoint this special judge.
The other legislator of the ruling party is Miguel Gutierrez Diaz, representing Santiago, who is facing a lawsuit in the United States, which if found guilty could face life imprisonment.
Gutiérrez Díaz was arrested at Miami airport, charged with three counts of distribution, possession and attempted distribution of cocaine in the United States.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office has asked a South Florida court to postpone the trial of the Dominican deputy until April 2022, while his ruling remains intact in the Dominican Congress, as the House Disciplinary Council Deputies have not initiated any process to undress-, given the course leading this process.
