Santo Domingo.- The lawyers grouped in the organization Cona oni Wednesday asked National District Appellate Court prosecutor Jose Sepulveda to investigate complaints against former public works minister Victor Diaz Rúa and Arab-American businessman Mustafa Abu Naba´a.
The lawyer’s guild accused Diaz Rua and Abu Naba’a of conspiracy to embezzle billions of taxpayer money.
