Santo Domingo.- <\/strong>The Public Prosecutor’s Office reiterated<\/a> this Monday that Jean Alain Rodr\u00edguez S\u00e1nchez’s attempts to evade the responsibility of facing the evidence in the trial through a repeated request for the dismissal of the criminal action, which has already been ruled against him, are legally unfounded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


This was stated by court prosecutor Mirna Ortiz, head of the Specialized Prosecutor’s Office for the Prosecution of Administrative Corruption (Pepca), who considered it impossible for a court to issue a ruling for the extinction of criminal action in this case.
\u201cWhat is going to happen with this incident? The same thing that has happened with previous proceedings,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


He recalled that the Constitutional Court has established the way in which the time of a process must be calculated. \u201cThe deadline for extinction is not a mathematical deadline, it is a deadline that must contemplate the magnitude of the process and the complexity, just as the rule states,\u201d he indicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n


\u201cAnd it must also address the criteria of reasonable timeframes, which are now addressed in article 146 of the Criminal Procedure Code, therefore, a dismissal ruling can never intervene in this process and they will be compelled to have to hear the trial on the merits,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n


He said that today the defendant and his lawyers once again wanted to delay the process, intending for the court to extend the two-hour deadline it had granted them for the presentation of their motion. \u201cWe spent practically three hours for the court to establish once again that they only had two hours for the presentation of their motion for dismissal,\u201d Ortiz pointed out, when responding to the journalists who approached her in the hallways of the Ciudad Nueva Palace of Justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Ortiz represents the Public Ministry along with Deputy Prosecutor Wilson Camacho, head of the General Directorate of Prosecution, and prosecutors Enmanuel Ram\u00edrez and Melbin Romero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During this Monday’s session, the Second Collegiate Court of the National District accepted the Public Prosecutor’s request and rejected the motion by Jean Alain Rodr\u00edguez’s defense, who sought to be granted more time to present the conclusions of the incident they had filed in writing with the court’s secretariat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


At the request of the Public Prosecutor’s Office, last Wednesday the court ordered the continuation of the trial after rejecting an appeal against previous decisions filed by several defense teams, including the request for the dismissal of the criminal proceedings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Judges Claribel Nivar, Clara Castillo, and Yissell Soto adjourned the hearing past noon this Monday and ordered its continuation in the afternoon, where Rodr\u00edguez S\u00e1nchez finished presenting his request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Subsequently, after concluding the day’s agenda, around 4:30 in the afternoon, the court ordered the adjournment of the hearing until Wednesday, July 29, 2026, at 9:00 in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The accusatory file states that Rodr\u00edguez S\u00e1nchez embezzled more than RD$6 billion through fraudulent processes between 2016 and 2020, years in which he served as Attorney General of the Republic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


In addition to Rodr\u00edguez S\u00e1nchez, the file includes: Jhonatan Loander Medina Reyes, Alfredo Alexander Solano Augusto, Jhonatan Joel Rodr\u00edguez Imbert, Javier Alejandro Forteza Ibarra, Rafael Antonio Mercedes Marte, Miguel Jos\u00e9 Moya, and Braulio Michael Batista Barias.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Also, Alejandro Mart\u00edn Rosa Llanes, Ram\u00f3n Lucrecio Burgos, Isis Tapia, F\u00e9lix Antonio Rosario Labrada, Francis Ram\u00edrez Moreno, Rolando Rafael Sebel\u00e9n Torres, C\u00e9sar Nicol\u00e1s Rizik Pimentel, and Jos\u00e9 Luis Liriano Adames are being prosecuted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Jean Alain Rodr\u00edguez S\u00e1nchez and the other defendants face corruption charges, including bribery, embezzlement, fraud against the State, and money laundering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
