Santo Domingo nightclub owners are set to stand trial after a roof collapse last year killed 236 people and left more than 100 others injured, according to multiple reports. A judge in the Dominican Republic rules that the sibling owners of the Santo Domingo venue, known as the Santo Domingo nightclub, will face charges of involuntary manslaughter. The decision follows an investigation into circumstances surrounding the collapse and resulting mass casualties. The reports agree that the incident occurred in the nightclub and that the fatalities numbered 236, with additional injuries affecting more than 100 people. While the sources focus on the court ruling and the charges, they do not provide details here on the specific allegations beyond involuntary manslaughter. The trial is scheduled to proceed based on the judge’s determination that the case warrants criminal proceedings against the owners.
