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 their mother, Lina Altagracia Lovatón Pittaluga. The outcome of the lengthy judicial process ultimately preserves the funds for the state rather than returning them to the descendants of the late dictator.
