Court ruling on investigative reporting in Dominican Republic raises concern
Miami (September 18, 2008) - The Inter American Press Association (IAPA) today expressed concern at a judge's decision in the Dominican Republic that ordered a police raid and seizure of documents and unedited videotapes belonging to a news media investigation.
National District Criminal Court Judge Felipe Molina Abreu ordered the confiscation of materials which included compact discs and lab test results from milk produced by Lácteos Dominicanos (Ladom). It all was part of an investigation by reporters Nuria Piera and Luis Eduardo Lora into the quality of milk being distributed to local schools."
