TV documentary to be aired on shooting dead of Tipperary man in South America.

 

A documentary to be broadcast on the Al Jazeera television station will raise new questions about the death of Tipperary man Michael Dwyer in Bolivia.

The Ballinderry man was shot dead by state security forces in the South American country on April 16th, 2009.

The government there claimed he was involved in a plot to assassinate President Evo Morales.

Two other men were also shot dead in a hotel in the city of Santa Cruz – Michael Dwyer's family have always maintained his innocence and have taken their campaign to clear his name to the European Parliament.

Tonight's documentary “Bolivian Escapade” is produced by Mayo based Inver Films.
