(IPYS/IFEX) – On 5 December 2006, the Supreme Court of Justice sentenced journalist Luis Verón, of the newspaper “ABC Color”, to 10 months of social work for defamation, slander and calumny. The sentence is the result of a suit filed by architect Luis Pereira Javaloyes after Verón published an article in 1999 that questioned the restoration of an architectural work done by Pereira.
The court rejected the testimony of experts who stated that the work had, in fact, been badly restored.
