Following up on a report of aggression by a North American citizen in a hotel in Punta Cana, the minister of Tourism, Francisco Javier García affirmed this Friday that he had no knowledge of the case, so President Danilo Medina ordered that a tourism security plan be created.

He said that the plan is ready and that it was sent to the Executive Power for approval and that it is waiting for the authorities to give a detailed report on what happened.
