Santo Domingo.- The lawyer for the French national indictedin Dominican Republic’s ‘air cocaine’ drug trafficking case on Thursday railed againstthe Justice Minister’s alleged statement aimed at linking his client to narcoticscrimes.
Miguel Valerio, attorney for Christophe Naudin, also notedthat the National District Office of the Prosecutor wrongfully formulated thecase file, for which they are eager to start the trial.
