A former public employee has gone on a hunger strike until his firing for alleged acts of corruption are investigated. Juan Medina was fired from his position at the Institute of Potable Water & Sewage (INAPA) and the San Cristobal City Hall. On Monday he began his hunger strike in front of the General Prosecutor's Office in Santo Domingo, holding a large sign that read, "My General Prosecutor, I am not a thief, I want justice." He is urging Prosecutor General Radhames Jimenez Pena to investigate his case. Medina is also asking Economy, Planning and Development Minister Temistocles Montas to investigate on his behalf. Medina says all he has is his honor. He was shocked when his nine-year old daughter said she was told at school that her father was a thief. Medina says he is a honest man with nothing to hide and says he will continue his hunger strike until an investigation is completed.
