Dominicans repatriated
On Tuesday 7 August, the United States authorities repatriated a group of 74 Dominicans who had completed jail sentences for different crimes. Of the group 29 were convicted of drug related offences, and the other for murder, forgery, state fraud, rape, kidnapping, arson and other crimes. The group arrived in the afternoon and were immediately taken to the Refugee Center in Haina for processing. Those with no outstanding warrants were then handed over to their families.
With this group, the number of repatriated Dominicans so far this year has reached 1,062, which is 11% increase compare to the same time last year.
