Lenin Jhericop N\u00fa\u00f1ez de Le\u00f3n, who is under investigation for the death of Enmanuel Contrera Medina, was arrested this Friday upon his arrival in the Dominican Republic. The arrest took place at Las Am\u00e9ricas International Airport (AILA) after landing on a flight from Miami, United States.<\/p>\n\n
Prior to his capture, N\u00fa\u00f1ez de Le\u00f3n released a video in which he asserted that his stay abroad was strictly due to academic commitments. The young man emphatically rejected the versions suggesting that he left the country to evade justice, arguing that at the time of his departure, there were no legal restrictions against him.<\/p>\n\n
I was never running, and I never had an arrest warrant, nor did I have anything preventing me from leaving the country. I am facing this head-on and I am going to explain how the events happened.<\/p>Lenin Jhericop N\u00fa\u00f1ez de Le\u00f3n<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n

In addition to addressing his departure from the country, N\u00fa\u00f1ez de Le\u00f3n denied rumors regarding an alleged change of identity to enter the United States and the existence of prior criminal records in Dominican territory. The individual under investigation stated that he had conducted a verification with U.S. authorities, confirming that he has no pending cases in that nation.<\/p>\n\n
\u201cLet the facts be clarified, and let there be justice for that family as well,\u201d he added, expressing his willingness to collaborate with the clarification of the event based on real evidence.<\/p>\n\n
