Santo Domingo.- Starting August 9, the Government will implement a “Comprehensive Plan for the Security of the Colonial City” to enhance the operations of the Tourist Police.

Joel Santos, Minister of the Presidency, announced that the pilot program will deploy 143 agents, led by an operations manager and supported by a monitoring and control center dedicated to the tourist area.
