Santo Domingo.- The Supreme Court will hear the case against a judge accused of extorting 6,000 dollars from a foreign company in the country’s East region, Chief justice Jorge Subero announced Wednesday.

The Chieft Justice later identified the judge as Altagracia Sanchez Molina, of the La Romana Civil and Commercial Chamber.

The plaintiff’s lawyer turned over recordings, documents and another evidences to Subero which allegedly implicates the judge, whose name, region, or court weren’t disclosed.

"The denunciations are very concrete, with precise details," Subero told the press, calling the case “very serious.”

He said recorded phone conversations refer to money which wasn’t delivered and "consequently an adverse ruling took place," against the company, reportedly the same one of English capital which UK ambassador Steven Fisher recently denounced as being blackmailed by judicial officials.

Both cases will be treated this morning by the Council. Nevertheless, Subero Isa did not want to speculate if a relation between both denunciations exists. It added that the complaint against the judge and who he himself listened to the recordings that tie the defendant.
