19 foreign nationals among victims in Jet Set tragedy

Santo Domingo.- At least 19 foreign nationals are among the 230 people identified following the deadly roof collapse at the Jet Set nightclub on April 8 in Santo Domingo. The confirmation comes from an official report issued by the National Institute of Forensic Sciences (INACIF) and the National Institute of Forensic Pathology, with support from the Scientific Police, National Police, and Central Electoral Board.

Among the deceased are 10 Venezuelans, three Dominican-Americans, two French citizens, and one person each from Italy, Colombia, Costa Rica, and Haiti. Authorities confirmed that all victims were identified through proper legal protocols, ensuring their remains were returned to their families.

The incident is being described as one of the most tragic in recent Dominican history. Investigations into the cause of the collapse are ongoing, while grieving families—many from abroad—begin the painful process of mourning and repatriation.
