Those killed and captured remain on the police fugitives list

An investigation into the Dominican Republic's National Police public fugitive gallery reveals systemic inaccuracies in the tracking of wanted individuals. Dead individuals, already captured suspects, and citizens who claim to have resolved their legal cases continue to be listed as active fugitives being pursued by authorities.

The discrepancy, highlighted in reports tracking the state of the public registry, raises questions about the reliability and maintenance of official law enforcement databases used to identify and pursue suspects. The situation affects not only deceased and detained persons but also individuals who maintain they have already cleared their legal status with authorities.
