Opposition party’s infighting reaches Santiago

Santiago.- A leader of the opposition PRD party who now heads the political movement “PRD members with Danilo” to support the ruling party candidate denounced that he and his relatives are getting death threats from the prominent PRD leader Jose Rafael Fermín “El Loco Fermín” and Victor Méndez, PRD presidential candidate Hipólito Mejia’s campaign chief in Santiago.

Héctor Domínguez (Papín) said Fermín and Méndez would be responsible if anything happens to him or his family.

He said as his wife Sandra and their daughters were leaving a TV program on Tuesday, they were pursued by Fermín in a SUV. “Once they realized they were being pursued they drove away from the area to avoid the worse.”

Dominguez added that Fermín operates on Méndez’s orders, and described the ex Mayor of Santiago as a “mobster.” Victor Mendez is a coward who cuts and runs every time the PRD faces a loss. He’s a mobster in Santiago who sends his thugs to the streets while he hides.”
