Dominican Republic: Attorney General's Office refuses to disclose data on deaths caused by police action

The request included specific details on how many deaths were criminally investigated, how many investigations remain active, how many have been archived, how many police officers have been prosecuted or convicted, and whether contradictions were identified between police reports and autopsy results. However, the PGR did not provide any statistics or detail the protocols used in cases where a person dies during a police intervention.

Running context

In Santo Domingo, interest in running has become visible through the growing participation of people in popular races and running clubs.

Benefits of running

Running can help reduce stress, improve mood, promote sleep, and reduce inactivity and isolation. However, it is important to remember that this activity does not replace professional care when symptoms are intense or persistent.

International competitions

Participation in competitions such as the Claro Half Marathon and the Monumental Marathon has contributed to the growth of running in the Dominican Republic. Some runners, such as Karla Martín, have participated in major international marathons outside their country.
