Citizen reports more than seven years with a travel ban unresolved after case with the DNCD

Santo Domingo. – Citizen Aneudy Queza denounced through the media outlet De Último Minuto that he has been facing difficulties for more than seven years to have a travel ban lifted, which he claims persists since a judicial process that occurred in 2015.

As he explained, he was arrested at that time by the National Drug Control Directorate in a drug-related case, for which he served a sentence of one month and five days, in addition to subsequently completing all the legal requirements imposed, including periodic signing and mandatory talks. The complainant maintains that, despite having complied with the entire process, he continues to appear with an impediment to leave the country, which has prevented him from traveling abroad. He indicated that on a recent occasion he was detained at the airport when he was trying to travel to Colombia with his daughter, which caused economic losses and a difficult emotional situation for his family. Queza stated that during these years he has delivered multiple documents requested by the authorities, without achieving a definitive solution. “Papers come and papers go, and it’s never resolved. A new requirement always appears,” he expressed, also pointing out that he has incurred significant expenses in the process.

The citizen called upon the corresponding institutions, including the Public Ministry and other competent bodies, to review their case and offer a concrete response that allows the impediment to be lifted. “The only thing I want is for them to remove the impediment so I can continue with my life and my projects,” he stated. Finally, he requested the intervention of the authorities to follow up on his situation and prevent a process that, according to him, has already exceeded reasonable deadlines from continuing to be prolonged.
