NewzA 76-year-old bank deposit made by Rafael Leónidas Trujillo in the Banco de Reservas (Banreservas) has officially concluded with a ruling in favor of the Dominican Republic State. The decision brings an end to a protracted legal battle initiated by two of Trujillo's children, who sought to recover the funds.
The contested money originated from a deposit intended for their mother, Lina Altagracia Lovatón Pittaluga. The resolution of this long-standing judicial dispute secures the historical funds for the state rather than the descendants of the former dictator.
