Public Ministry corrects: Still hasn’t arrested Argenis Kodigo

Santo Domingo.– Although the Public Ministry through its press team had announced the capture of Argenis Santana Herrera, (Argenis Kodigo), tonight it corrected that the accused of leading a criminal network of drug trafficking and money laundering has not been arrested. In that sense, the press release issued by the entity was removed from the diffusion groups, social networks, and the institution’s official page.

Argenis Kodigo is being pursued for his connection to the criminal structure of drug trafficking and money laundering that was dismantled this week in a joint action with the National Drug Control Directorate (DNCD). In the midst of the operation carried out last Monday to dismantle the network, under judicial orders, the authorities also arrested Alfredo Samboy Féliz (Burungo) and Suleica Herrera Geraldo. A team of 21 prosecutors from the Santo Domingo East Prosecutor’s Office, with the support of 150 agents from the DNCD and Navy personnel, carried out 15 simultaneous raids in the National District, Santo Domingo East, and Baní, Peravia province, against members of the criminal structure that, in September 2024, had 20 packages of cocaine seized in the municipality of Villa Mella. During the operation, two houses, four apartments, a villa, a pharmacy, firearms, two nightclubs, vehicles, a recreational boat, a drone, a satellite phone, five Jet Skis, clothing, documents, money in pesos and dollars, electronic equipment, cell phones, and other evidence linked to the investigation were seized. The busiest nightclubs are Kodigo VIP, in Santo Domingo Este, and Flow Room, in the National District.
