Santiago Matías “Alofoke” calls for a vigil in front of the Palace of Justice for the SeNaSa case

Santo Domingo.— The businessman and communicator Santiago Matías, better known as Alofoke, called for a peaceful march-vigil this Sunday in front of the Palace of Justice of Ciudad Nueva, in rejection of the alleged corruption scheme detected in the National Health Insurance (SeNaSa).

Through his digital platforms, Matías called on the citizenry, as well as artists, communicators, and influencers, to join the mobilization peacefully, with the aim of demanding transparency and justice in a case that, according to complaints from the Public Ministry, had seriously affected the country's public health system.

During his summons, Alofoke questioned what he defined as unequal treatment by the judicial system, pointing out that while people with economic resources are granted privileges, more severe measures are applied to citizens of the neighborhoods.

The communicator also requested that the same rigor of the law faced by the majority of citizens deprived of liberty be applied.

This Sunday, Judge Rigoberto Sena, from the Permanent Attention Office of the National District, will hear the request for coercive measures against 10 defendants of the so-called Operation Cobra, accused of an alleged embezzlement of the State exceeding RD$15 billion.
