OFAC cites corruption, human rights violations

Two men placed on Blocked Persons List.
   The Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has published the names of two men who have been placed on its Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List.
   Felix Ramon Bautista Rosario, a member of the Dominican Republic Senate, was blocked, according to the Federal Register, because he is “responsible for or complicit in, or has directly or indirectly engaged in, corruption.”
   Named to the list because of their purported ties to Rosario were businesses based in the Dominican Republic: Constructora Hadom , Constructora Rofi, Inmobiliaria Rofi, Seymeh Ingenieria and Soluciones Electricas y Mecanicas Hadom SRL.
   Hing Bun Hieng of Cambodia was named to the list “for being or having been a leader or official of the prime minister bodyguard unit, an entity that has engaged in, or whose members have engaged in, serious human rights abuse.”
   All property and interests in property subject to U.S. jurisdiction of these people are blocked, and U.S. citizens generally are prohibited from engaging in transactions with them. Additional information on property and interests subject to U.S. jurisdictions is available on OFAC’s website.
