Film to probe Dwyer’s death in Bolivia

New questions about the death of Michael Dwyer are to be raised in a documentary to be aired tonight on Al Jazeera, the Qatar-based TV station.

Mr Dwyer was shot dead in Bolivia by state security forces on Apr 16, 2009, after allegedly being involved with a group which planned to assassinate the country’s president.

The circumstances in which Co Tipperary native Mr Dwyer and two other men were shot dead have been highly disputed by pathological evidence and independent inquiries.
