You want the secret to flying into the Dominican Republic and not getting detained? Or just the secret of doing it with twenty five million dollars of cocaine secreted on board your aircraft?
Legitimate airlines don't hire people who are the centerpiece of the longest running domestic violence trial in state history, involving carving death threats to children into one's wife's limbs. This was not a legitimate airline, nor a legitimate operation, nor was it a matter of illegal, or even inappropriate detention. Even the RCMP noted that the Dominican Republic was well within their rights to take this action, and under Dominican law detention for up to 12 months without charges is legal, pending investigation. The crew is not in jail. This was not a case of contraband stowed in passenger bags, or even left in a baggage space. This was a matter of twenty five million in cocaine stowed in the electronics bay area, trafficked through a foreign country, by questionable persons in a very questionable operation. Read all about it.

If you don't understand it, grow up another ten or fifteen years, and revisit as an adult.

You have a hard-on for Safdar.
Eleven people have been held for 6 months - he is only one of them, however large he seems to loom in your life.
A few years back an Alaskan operator paid a convicted sex offender to go away after they'd hired him - having served his time, it still freaked them out...I wouldn't doubt he is flying for someone in this market.
