00:00Good afternoon, greetings to those tuning in from New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, here in the Dominican Republic,
00:07to our followers on social media, and to our faithful TV viewers on Channel 11.
00:11Thank you all for tuning in.
00:14We'll start with some unfortunate news.
00:16A 25-year-old young man killed his mother-in-law with a gunshot to the chest
00:21after an argument with his partner in the Enriquillo de Herrera neighborhood in Santo Domingo Oeste.
00:26Paola Vaz has the live report of this unfortunate event.
00:31Good afternoon, Paola. Go ahead and tell us.
00:34Thank you. Good afternoon.
00:36Just where we are broadcasting from was the place where the argument between the victim's daughter and her partner began.
00:43According to neighbors and family, on Monday night,
00:4748-year-old Teresa Sanchez Jimenez tried to mediate the young couple's conflict,
00:52and the attacker fired two shots.
00:54One of the shots hit him in the chest, and after walking a few meters,
00:58he collapsed on the sidewalk of the first street in this area.
01:01His daughter's husband killed her. He was fighting with her.
01:05She intervened, and he shot her.
01:07He was very helpful, very good, and always did his job.
01:12She was here in the neighborhood, but I don't know why that happened.
01:17After committing the crime, Eddie Gonzalez fled the scene,
01:20taking his partner by force on a motorcycle.
01:23Hours later, he released her and took her in a taxi to the place where he had taken her,
01:29according to the National Police.
01:32No, he took his wife, the daughter of the deceased.
01:37It wasn't a daughter. It was his wife, the daughter of the deceased, who was pregnant with him.
01:42She was six months pregnant.
01:44The neighbors are not surprised by what happened.
01:47They say Teresa Sanchez Jimenez was a calm woman, and they asked for justice.
01:52Bad, very bad, because she was good.
01:55She was a good neighbor, she shared with us, she was very good.
01:58She was very calm. They loved her a lot.
02:03I want the police to help him, and if possible, to kill him.
02:09If possible.
02:10So they can rip his head off, because he's a criminal,
02:13they put him in jail, and he's going to do the same thing later.
02:16In the place of the incident, the police collected a 3.80 caliber helmet.
02:21The daughter of the deceased and a niece who saw the event
02:24remain under investigation under police custody.
02:27While the body of the order activated the search for Eddie Gonzalez and exhorted him to turn himself in.
02:32With this information, I return with you. Good afternoon.
02:35Very good afternoon to you, Paola. Thank you for your report. Very unfortunate.
02:39We address another case, and it is that the judge of the permanent care office,
02:43José Francisco de Asís, sentenced three months of preventive prison
02:47against Gregorio Muñoz Morales, accused of shooting several times
02:51his ex-partner Maria Esther Moya, 28 years old,
02:54in an incident that occurred on the morning of March 27, in the municipality of Navarrete.
03:00What did the judge say?
03:03Well, the public military made a request, which at the time will be carried out.
03:11The judge, a judge in this case, took her.
03:14And that's why he made a three-month correctional order.
03:18After he abandoned her, he left her with his child.
03:23He took her and killed her. My sister, we want justice.
03:26Because it was not an animal that he killed.
03:29They sentenced Rafael to three months of cohesion.
03:37The measure must be met at the Rafael Hombre Rehabilitation Center.
03:40Muñoz Morales was arrested in the municipality of Restauración,
03:44province of Dajabón, where, after confessing the crime, he was handed over to police officers.
03:51We change the subject, and there is already consensus with four of the five members
03:54for the accounting chamber, so on Tuesday the country will know their names.
03:59And as Eliana Cuevas tells us, the plan is in the fifth member,
04:03who is objected by the opposition.
04:06Very good afternoon, Eliana, go ahead.
04:09Thank you, good afternoon.
04:11The consensus among the commissioners who are evaluating the future members
04:16of the accounting chamber includes those who will preside over the inspectorate.
04:22Next Tuesday, the country will have a new accounting chamber,
04:27a proactive accounting chamber,
04:29an accounting chamber where there will be a great diversity of professionals,
04:33but also where we were able, in the interviews, in the evaluations,
04:37we were able to verify that they could work as a team.
04:40Let's wait.
04:44There is consensus with almost everyone.
04:46With the presidency, there is consensus.
04:48With the vice presidency, there is consensus.
04:50One member is missing.
04:55No, the opposition does not even oppose.
04:58Although the legislators understand that all the members of the Ternas are good,
05:02there is a problem with the members of the People's Force,
05:05who object to the fifth candidate for this body.
05:10One of them did not participate.
05:12The two who participated do not agree with the choice of the five members
05:17that we have chosen so far.
05:19This version was denied by the Senator of the People's Force,
05:23Eduardo Espíritu Santo,
05:25who affirms that the Officialist Party wants to impose its majority.
05:29We have not spoken of consensus,
05:32but the PRM wants to impose the members in a democratic way.
05:43Those members that we have interviewed in the Senate,
05:47the Senate Commission,
05:49we have not seen the evaluation either.
05:51Meanwhile, Dagoberto Rodríguez indicated
05:54that with or without the opponents,
05:56there will be a counting chamber next Tuesday.
06:00Because we want a transparent counting chamber,
06:03and you can be sure, or you can be sure,
06:06and the country can be sure,
06:08that we are going to choose a counting chamber
06:10that you will really feel satisfied
06:14and maybe even proud to have chosen a counting chamber,
06:18as God commands.
06:20The special commission for the counting chamber
06:23is made up of 11 senators,
06:25three of them of the People's Force,
06:28and the vote of the three quarters is needed
06:31for the report to be approved.
06:33This is all the information.
06:35Back to you.
06:36Thank you very much, Eliana, for your complete report.
06:38It is information in process.
06:40Of course, we follow it closely on Telenoticias.
06:43We continue with other information on Telenoticias.
06:45Some Dominican voters are in favor
06:48and others are against the deportation of illegal Haitians
06:51who enter the transport sector.
06:53And as Ana Mañón informs us,
06:55El Intran delivered to Migracion
06:57a list of supposed Haitian drivers
06:59without documents that justify their presence in the country.
07:04One of the requirements to drive an engine
07:07is to have a license,
07:08and Haitians, in an irregular situation, do not have it.
07:12This was indicated by motorists from various stops
07:15in the municipality of Santo Domingo Oeste,
07:17who see the measure as positive
07:19if they do not have documentation.
07:21They are really overshadowing us here,
07:23but those who have documents have to leave them.
07:25If they are illegal, yes, very positive.
07:28But if you are legal, it does not matter.
07:30This is not because we are racists or anything,
07:34but if you are not legal,
07:35go to Haiti and become illegal,
07:39so that you know how it is treated here,
07:41so that you stand up.
07:42They also assured that with the arrival of illegal Haitians
07:46to the stops of Concho or Moto Taxis,
07:48their income has decreased.
07:51The Haitians have taken away all our jobs,
07:53they have taken them all away.
07:55They have taken everything away from us.
07:57Those who remained were the motorists, and they are also gone.
07:59This is good, that they deport them to their country,
08:01because these people do not let us work in peace.
08:04Others, on the other hand, differ and affirm
08:06that irregular Haitians are only looking for a way to survive,
08:10like any other irregular citizen in a foreign country.
08:15Because many Haitians do not have papers,
08:17but they come to work and look for their food,
08:20and they do not do anything wrong.
08:21But there are Haitians who come to hurt themselves.
08:24Meanwhile, some motorists of Haitian origin complained
08:29that their compatriots do not have documentation
08:32due to the few opportunities given to them
08:35by the Dominican authorities
08:37to be able to renew their card already expired,
08:40in addition to suspending the issuance of the visa.
08:45It's because of the situation.
08:47Sometimes you get your passport,
08:49and you can't even get your visa,
08:51because it makes it difficult for you.
08:53And sometimes you get your visa,
08:55and they never give it to you, you know?
08:57You don't want to be illegal.
08:59The only thing is that here,
09:01they don't give you the opportunity to be legalized.
09:04Because when you take a document,
09:07you close it, you cancel your passport,
09:10you cancel your visa.
09:12So you want to be legalized.
09:13How are you going to be legalized?
09:14When delivering the statistical document,
09:16the head of Intran Milton Morrison
09:18to the Director of Immigration
09:20indicated that he is not against the motoconcho sector,
09:23but against the illegal actions
09:25carried out by some of the foreign nationals
09:28that go against the compliance of Law 63-17 of transit.
09:34For Telenoticias, Ana Mañón.
09:38In other information,
09:40former President Hipólito Mejía
09:42warns that without Haitian labor,
09:44agricultural activity would be severely affected in the country.
09:47This report is by Guillermo García.
09:51Around the outbreak of porcine fever,
09:53Mejía considers it mild
09:55and attributes to a few producers
09:57the alarm generated with the aim
09:59of obtaining economic compensation from the state
10:01for their mistakes.
10:03I don't like that game
10:07of postponing these problems
10:10and taking advantage of this situation.
10:13I am radical in this.
10:15But what would be the role of the state?
10:17No, what they want is what they have
10:19in the responsibility of their farm,
10:21not the state.
10:22We are all the state.
10:23About the denunciation of the senator by Elías Piñas
10:25that undocumented Haitians
10:27plow the Sierra de Neiva,
10:29the former mayor coincided with the legislator.
10:32On the march to Friusa,
10:34he exhorted to be careful
10:36to those who, for seeking sound,
10:38could affect tourism.
10:40This is a tourist country
10:42and any little problem
10:44affects tourism.
10:46And we have the opposite
10:48in the Caribbean
10:50and in other parts of the world
10:52that any little detail we do
10:54creates problems.
10:56I do not recommend
10:58to any sector that has
11:00the possibility of protecting
11:02in some places that are not neural,
11:04to be cautious.
11:06The demagogy
11:08ended in this country.
11:10About this particular,
11:12the minister of the presidency,
11:14José Ignacio Paliza,
11:16did not want to answer
11:18if they would be willing
11:20to receive the old Dominican order.
11:22But would the government be willing
11:24to receive the old Dominican order?
11:26Let me go, I have a job.
11:28Let me go back.
11:30These statements occurred
11:32after attending the inauguration
11:34of the Dominican Republic.
11:36The distinguished speakers
11:38spoke about the efforts
11:40to take care of the environment.
11:42For Telenoticias,
11:44Guillermo García.
11:46And the constitutionalists
11:48of April 1965
11:50expressed their support
11:52for the patriotic awakening
11:54that according to them
11:56is exhibiting a large part
11:58of the Dominican society
12:00after the march in Friusa.
12:02In the context of the 60th anniversary
12:04of the April 1965 war,
12:06Andrés Fortunato Victoria
12:08suggested to the organizers
12:10of the march
12:12against the illegal presence
12:14of Haitian citizens
12:16to stop vigorously
12:18if they assume
12:20a more frontal action.
12:22And the president
12:24of the Association of Hotels and Tourism
12:26of the Dominican Republic,
12:28Juan Bancarari,
12:30called today the Dominicans
12:32to take care and preserve tourism,
12:34considered the main source
12:36of the country's economy.
12:38In that sense, it coincided
12:40with various sectors
12:42who ask the nationalist groups
12:44to postpone the demonstrations
12:46called in the next days in Friusa,
12:48demanding the exit of Haitians
12:50from the Dominican territory.
12:52I imagine that as a Dominican
12:54and people as nationalist
12:56as those groups,
12:58because tourism is obviously
13:00a source of employment
13:02for more than 750,000 Dominicans.
13:04It is the main currency
13:06of the country.
13:08It is what the Dominican Republic
13:10has projected as a world brand.
13:12So a patriot should never
13:14try to harm tourism.
13:16I understand that it should not be like that,
13:18but as the senator said,
13:20it would be better to have the march
13:22in another place,
13:24so as not to take unnecessary risks.
13:26We continue with other news.
13:28The Ministry of Tourism
13:30inaugurated this morning
13:32the third edition
13:34of the Dominican Republic
13:36Trade Show Miami 2025,
13:38where the country,
13:40through agreements,
13:42seeks to attract
13:44more than 500,000 tourists
13:46from Canada, the United States
13:48and Latin America.
13:50As Fabiola Núñez tells us,
13:52Minister David Collado explained
13:54that a hotel investment
13:56that exceeds $1 billion
13:58is also expected.
14:00The contact with Fabiola Núñez
14:02live from the City of the Sun.
14:04Good afternoon Fabiola.
14:08Good afternoon.
14:10The American continent
14:12represents 85%
14:14of the arrival of tourists
14:16to the Dominican Republic.
14:18Because of its importance
14:20for Dominican tourism,
14:22this sector inaugurated
14:24today the Trade Show
14:262025 in the city of Miami,
14:28with the participation
14:30of more than 90 co-exhibitors
14:32and more than 500 representatives
14:34of the value chain
14:36of the chimney-free industry.
14:38Dominicana again
14:40reflects the power
14:42that the entire region has
14:44in the tourism industry.
14:46We are heading towards 12 million
14:48tourists for the year 2025.
14:50Our country is a safe destination,
14:52a destination of good people,
14:54working people,
14:56people who look in the mirror
14:58in the morning and laugh.
15:00We are really
15:02in front of the most important
15:04commercial event
15:06that the Dominican Republic has.
15:08During the event,
15:10legal security stood out,
15:12as well as the democratic
15:14and right-wing state
15:16that the Dominican Republic enjoys,
15:18as well as a destination
15:20for vacation and investment.
15:22When they build a hotel,
15:24they are not going to take it.
15:26They know that it is a long-term investment.
15:28They know and see that we have
15:30legal security, economic stability,
15:32social stability,
15:34and great security
15:36for their investments.
15:38Tourism in our country
15:40is something new.
15:42The social peace that lives
15:44in our country is something new,
15:46and that is thanks
15:48to the great effort
15:50made by the Ministry of Tourism
15:52and the Tourism Board
15:54in all these four years,
15:56where we have potentialized
15:58our country as a main destination
16:00in tourism.
16:02During the commercial fair,
16:04it is also sought to potentialize
16:06the destination of Punta Vercantil,
16:08whose project is advancing rapidly.
16:10Two weeks ago,
16:12we started the official entry
16:14and it should be ready by August.
16:16We are working hard
16:18for the first
16:20Picasso of two of the hotels
16:22for the last four months of this year
16:24and the start of the golf course
16:26at the end of this year.
16:28As usual, the Ministry of Tourism
16:30presents a modern stand
16:32that has captivated the attendees
16:34and which reflects the natural
16:36wealth and tourist diversity
16:38of the country.
16:40During the event, David Collado
16:42received several awards
16:44as well as the award
16:46from TripAdvisor,
16:48where the Dominican Republic
16:50is the winner as the best destination
16:52for honeymoon, as well as
16:54the best beach in the Caribbean.
16:56For now, this is all the information
16:58I have from the City of the Sun.
17:00Here in Miami, I return with you
17:02to the newsroom.
17:04Thank you very much, Fabiola Núñez,
17:06for this complete report.
17:08We now address another topic,
17:10the story of Roldán y Calderón.
17:12We will ask ourselves who he is.
17:14Roldán is a three-year-old boy
17:16who mysteriously disappeared
17:18when he was playing in the courtyard
17:20of a relative's house.
17:22A large rescue staff,
17:24including a canine unit,
17:26works against the clock
17:28to find this little one.
17:30Weyni Polanco collected the details
17:32of this case and prepared
17:34the following story.
17:36Please, I'm going to ask
17:38for my son's recovery.
17:40This is the cry of Carolina Vargas,
17:42mother of Roldán y Calderón,
17:44the three-year-old boy
17:46who mysteriously disappeared
17:48when he was playing with other minors
17:50in a nearby wooded area
17:52at J. Armando Bermúdez National Park,
17:54where he was visiting
17:56his parents.
17:58I know there are good people here.
18:00There are people who don't play
18:02with the pain of others.
18:04Who sees my son out there?
18:06Please, communicate.
18:10The minor was reported
18:12as missing last Sunday,
18:14March 30, and since then,
18:16the anguish and fear
18:18have plagued the community
18:20of Los Tablones
18:22in the Municipal District of Manabao
18:24in the municipality of Jarabacoa,
18:26La Vega Province.
18:28He was playing with me,
18:30and then I took him to his dad,
18:32and his dad was with her in the kitchen.
18:34The search continues for 32 hours,
18:36and there is still no trace of the minor,
18:38despite a wide tracking device
18:40under the coordination
18:42of the Specialized Procuracy
18:44for Children, Teens, and Adolescents,
18:46in which police officers,
18:48military personnel,
18:50and relief organizations also participate,
18:52who employ canine units
18:54and drones to track the area.
18:56The authorities urge the population
18:58to collaborate with any information
19:00that can help to find the whereabouts
19:02of the minor.
19:04For Telenoticias,
19:06I'm Weyni Polanco.
19:32Ariel Suero
20:02We are calling for a more human approach
20:04to the celebration of Down's Syndrome
20:06and these two important dates
20:08so that we can give a more human look.
20:10Although we know
20:12that disability
20:14is not a favor,
20:16it is a right.
20:18Children with disabilities
20:20are not going to public schools,
20:22and it is a fundamental right
20:24that we must claim.
20:26They must stop
20:28inserting themselves
20:30into their daily work
20:32with resources.
20:34It is practically impossible
20:36because they have to dedicate
20:38themselves to that child.
20:40The call was made by
20:42a group of legislators
20:44of the Modern Revolutionary Party
20:46in the need to increase
20:48resources for people
20:50with disabilities.
20:52The legislators said that
20:54although there is Law 5-13
20:56on disability,
20:58it is necessary and up-to-date
21:00to adapt to the new realities
21:02of this group of people.
