Remolacha.net reports (ES) that the family of slain 22-year old José Stalin Ortíz Tejada, who was killed by bandits in the Los Guarícanos district of the Dominican Republic, have threated to go on a hunger strike if police do not step up the pace of the investigation. The family believes that the investigation is not being given the same level of attention as that given to other similar cases.
