Santo Domingo.- The faction of Dominican Republic’s opposition party (PRD) headed by former president Hipolito Mejia will meet with the Political Committee today as announced last week, based on 93 signatures of the organization’s leaders, but which the opposing group warned that it would be just a gathering of friends.

Andres Bautista, who was in yesterday’s meeting with Milagros Ortiz Bosch, Emmanuel Esquea, Orlando Jorge, Geanilda Vasquez, Hipolito Mejia, Cesar Cedeño, Jesus Vasquez, Cesar Sanchez and other PRD leaders, said they’ll decide what steps to take after the PRD Disciplinary Board expelled them.
