Dominican Police arrested the son of Barahona senator Noe Sterling Vásquez, in connection with the execution of seven men

Dominican Police arrested the son of Barahona senator Noe Sterling Vásquez, in connection with the execution of seven men in Paya, Baní (south), and drug trafficking in the zone. Martin Sterling was turned over to Police by the lawmaker at 8 a.m., after the commission that investigates the massacre linked him to the drug trafficking case said to involve 1,300 kilos of cocaine, which led to the killings of seven Colombians. “He (Martin Sterling) is being interrogated, and if his involvement with the case is verified he’ll be taken to court restrictive measures placed against him,” said a source quoted by newspaper El Dia after the Police interrogation yesterday.Officials and “important” people are investigated in the case, whose names won’t be made public until information found by investigators is verified. In a related development, Armed Forces minister Pedro Rafael Peña yesterday said a military unit protects Peravia province senator Wilton Guerrero, whom drug traffickers have reportedly put out a RD$10 million contract on his life. "We have been providing him the necessary protection to prevent any kind problem with his physical integrity."Interviewed in the National Palace, Peña said the military services are collaborating regarding Guerrero’s denunciations of conspiracy by the Baní authorities with drug traffickers.
