Opposition PRSC party presidential pre-candidate and Dominican Municipal League (LMD) head Amable Aristy Castro has announced that following extensive investigations, the US government has reinstated his tourist visa. On 15 August 2006 the United States Embassy confirmed the cancellation of Aristy's tourist visa (B1/B2). The US Embassy did not give any reasons for the decision, although Aristy Castro was being linked to a scandal involving the sale of visas to family members of municipal officials at the time. The revocation of Aristy's visa did not necessarily affect his ability to travel, as on previous occasions it has been known that for diplomatic reasons the government visa granted to an officer has been maintained while the personal visa may be cancelled.
