The Second Criminal Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice postponed until September 21 the substantive trial of the deputy of the Modern Revolutionary Party for Santiago, Gregorio Domínguez Domínguez, accused of violating private property in the community of Punta Rucia, Puerto Silver.
The hearing, which was suspended because one of the magistrates of that criminal chamber of the SCJ is ill, is scheduled for 10:00 in the morning of September 21.
The resending of the hearing had been requested by the Public Ministry and none of the parties to the process objected, a behavior that was praised by the president of the Criminal Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice, Francisco Antonio Jerez Mena, who pointed out that the greatness of peoples is the quality of the people.
In order to advance the work, said criminal chamber arranged to work those three consecutive days, since many of the victims to attend the hearing have to travel from the community of Punta Rucia.
On February 8 of this year, the Public Ministry presented a formal accusation before the Supreme Court of Justice against the deputy for the province of Santiago Gregorio Domínguez Domínguez, whom he accused of violating private property.
The accusation presented by the accusing body indicates that Domínguez Domínguez violated articles 24 and 25 of Law 396-19, which regulates the granting of the Public Force and article 1 of Law 5869, on Violation of Property to the detriment of the citizen Dominican-Italian Lucila Nelly Capellán Luna.
Regarding the fact, the file indicates that around 10:00 in the morning of May 27, 2020, Messrs. Basilio Catalino Martínez (Jaime) and Emmanuel de Jesús Williams Molina, employee of the first accused and driver of the backhoe the second, on the instructions of the defendant Gregorio Domínguez Domínguez, they went to the Punta Rucia community, in Estero Hondo, Puerto Plata, where the victim Capellán Luna was building his home.
It explains that once at the scene, Catalino Martínez and Williams Molina proceeded, without the due formalities of the law and by order and with the participation of the accused, to evict, destroy and later demolish the house built by the victim.
