WILLEMSTAD – Pastor Carlos Donado was released from custody last Friday, the Public Prosecution Office confirmed on Tuesday. His release comes with strict conditions, including a ban on contacting certain individuals involved in the ongoing money laundering investigation.
The decision was made by the Court of Justice following a request from Donado's attorney to suspend his pretrial detention.
Pastor Donado was initially arrested in February at Hato Airport upon his return from Colombia. He was temporarily released in March but was shortly thereafter taken back into custody.
The investigation into money laundering is still ongoing, and authorities have not yet disclosed further details.
