Trujillo's deposit in Banreservas ends up in favor of the State

The Dominican state has secured a legal victory regarding a 76-year-old deposit made by former dictator Rafael Leónidas Trujillo at the Banco de Reservas. The funds, originally intended for Lina Altagracia Lovatón Pittaluga, became the subject of a protracted judicial dispute initiated by two of Trujillo's children who sought to reclaim the money as heirs.

The court's decision concludes the long-standing litigation, effectively awarding the assets to the state. The case highlights the ongoing legal efforts to resolve financial matters related to the Trujillo era.
