Atg: Dominicans hide out in Antigua

The police and immigration officials are searching for four nationals of the Dominican Republic, who reportedly eluded immigration and failed to return to the cruise liner Aida.

Nine other nationals of the Dominican Republic, who left the vessel after it docked at Heritage Quay, were picked up yesterday morning at a house in George Street, Villa and have since been detained by the police.

When Aida docked at Heritage Quay on Monday, 13 of its passengers left the cruise liner and never returned.

A check of their rooms on board the cruise ship revealed that they left behind all their possessions including their passports.

This is sheer desperation that is driving Dominicanos from their homeland. All thanks to the IMF. Where's the CBC or the Hispanic Caucus on this?
