The AP has reported from Montevideo that a prisoner in a Uruguyan prison has tapped into the U.S. ambassador’s cellphone and sent messages to some of her contacts. Officials said yesterday that the inmate also had access to Ambassador Julissa Reynoso’s voice messages. According to a local radio station, police discovered the inmate’s activities while investigating him for other fraudulent behavior.
Reynoso has reportedly filed a complaint with Uruguay’s interior ministry.
