Tourism gives hotels 60 days to install surveillance cams

Santo Domingo.- The Tourism Ministry on Wed. issued a 60-day deadline to hotels in the Dominican Republic to install surveillance cameras, just days after three separate deaths of tourists made international headlines.

In the resolution Tourism minister Francisco Javier García warns that failure to comply with the measure could lead to the revocation of the operating license, “independently of any other measure that may be applicable or pertinent.”

The document issued yesterday comes after the un-explained and non-violent deaths of three American tourists at the hotel Playa Nueva Romana (east).
