Those killed and captured remain on the police fugitives list

An investigation or report highlights ongoing discrepancies within the Dominican Republic's public fugitive gallery maintained by the National Police. Specifically, individuals who are already deceased, have been captured, or claim to have resolved their legal cases continue to be listed as active fugitives sought by the authorities.

The public gallery is designed to help identify and track suspects that the police are still actively pursuing. However, the presence of dead, detained, and cleared individuals on the list points to systemic update failures within the institution's tracking mechanisms, an issue that came to light following information diffused by the law enforcement body on March 18, 2026.
