NewzA 76-year-old financial deposit made by former Dominican dictator Rafael Leónidas Trujillo in the Banco de Reservas (Banreservas) has officially been resolved in favor of the Dominican State. The ruling concludes a prolonged legal battle initiated by two of Trujillo's children, who sought to recover the funds.
The disputed monies were originally intended for Lina Altagracia Lovatón Pittaluga, the mother of the two claimants. The legal proceedings mark the end of a decades-long effort by the descendants to reclaim the historical assets held within the state-owned bank.
