--- The context --- According to the DNCD, the October balance summarizes its interventions against trafficking, distribution and micro-trafficking nationwide. --- The facts --- The agency reported nine hundred thirty thousand nine hundred two grams of alleged drugs and four thousand two hundred eighty-one people arrested, after thirty-nine thousand two hundred ninety-five operations and three hundred thirty-five searches in coordination with the Public Ministry and with support from the National Police. According to the DNCD, there were seven hundred eighty-three thousand five hundred eighty-four grams of alleged cocaine, one hundred thirty-one thousand seven hundred forty-four of alleged marijuana, fifteen thousand one hundred ninety-one grams of alleged crack, portions of alleged tusi and alleged hashish and two hundred fifty-three alleged ecstasy pills, in addition to forty firearms, seventy-one bladed weapons, one thousand one hundred ninety-six phones, six hundred forty-seven scales, one hundred fifty radios, one hundred sixty-three motorcycles, nine vehicles and cash in Dominican pesos, dollars and euros. --- The positions --- According to the DNCD, these actions seek to dismantle selling points and bring before justice those who allegedly take part in these illicit activities. Arrested people were placed at the disposal of the Public Ministry for judicial procedures. --- What remains unknown --- The DNCD indicated that the alleged substances will be analyzed by the competent bodies. Judicial outcomes and destination of seized assets remain undetailed. --- Unanswered questions --- What will the analyses confirm about the alleged substances? How will procedures before the Public Ministry advance? What prevention will accompany operations in affected communities? --- EPM analysis --- The reported scale is broad, but its value will depend on due process, confirming each alleged substance and safer surroundings without undermining rights. 📌 EPM Take: In EPM's view, the balance attributed to the DNCD must be read rigorously and with respect for due process: each substance remains alleged until its analysis, each arrested person keeps their guarantees before the courts, and the fight against micro-trafficking gains legitimacy with firm operations, verified evidence and effective protection for the affected Dominican communities nationwide.
