REF: 04 STATE 160124 
 
1. (U) On June 2, 2005, Felix Madera was returned to the 
United States in the company of a U.S. Marshal.  Madera is 
wanted for sentencing in the United States District Court for 
the District of New Jersey on federal narcotics offenses. 
 
2. (U) Madera was arrested by the Dominican National 
Directorate for Drug Control (DNCD) on an arrest warrant 
based on a USG request for extradition.  Miranda waived his 
right to an extradition hearing in front of the Criminal 
Chamber of the Dominican Supreme Court and executed a 
witnessed, notarized affidavit indicating his desire to 
return voluntarily to the United States. 
 
2. (U) The return of Felix Madera marks the 25th fugitive 
subject to extradition who has been returned to the United 
States during the second administration of President Leonel 
Fernandez.  He is the 12th fugitive returned from the 
Dominican Republic to the United States in 2005.
