Resignations and dismissal at the Ombudsman's Office

Three key officials have resigned and one has been dismissed from the office of the Ombudsman (Defensor del Pueblo) in the Dominican Republic. The personnel changes occur with only one year remaining in the term of current Ombudsman Pablo Ulloa. Among those affected by the shake-up is Manuel Méndez Ferreras, who was fired from his position as the director of administration and finance.

The departures represent a significant administrative transition within the institution as it approaches the final year of the current leadership's mandate. While three key staff members stepped down voluntarily, the termination of Méndez Ferreras marks a direct dismissal from within the upper echelons of the Ombudsman's financial and operational management.
