Dominican Official Denies Corruption Charges: "Much Foam, Little Chocolate"

Aquiles Christopher, a former supervisor at the Oisoe office, pleaded not guilty to corruption charges in a Dominican court today. He dismissed the accusations as lacking substance, stating, "It's much foam and little chocolate." The prosecution alleges Christopher altered documents to show the delivery of medical equipment that never arrived, benefiting Alexis Medina's companies. Christopher's lawyer added that the evidence is insufficient and requested an acquittal, along with the return of seized assets. The case highlights ongoing concerns about corruption within Dominican government institutions.
