In a bold move to enforce regulatory compliance, officials from the Ministry of Housing and Buildings (MIVED) conducted an unexpected inspection at the Suplax store in Santo Domingo this Monday. The establishment, which had been officially shut down weeks prior, was found to be operating illegally, defying the closure order. The raid was prompted by an investigative report from N Digital, which exposed the store’s continued operations. Upon arrival, inspectors discovered dozens of employees and customers engaged in transactions, leading to chaos as individuals scrambled to exit the premises, some even attempting to conceal merchandise. MIVED authorities have declared that Suplax will face severe penalties for its blatant disregard of the closure mandate and violations of building and business regulations. The ministry emphasized its unwavering commitment to upholding the law across the nation and issued a stern warning that unauthorized reopening of closed establishments will result in stringent legal consequences.
