More allegations of sexual misconduct have been made against Nobel Peace Prize winner and former Costa Rican President Oscar Arias, with five women saying he harassed or assaulted them, in a high-profile example of the #MeToo movement in Latin America. At the time, Daly was freelancing for Reuters and the Tico Times, a Costa Rican newspaper, she said. Her story was first reported by Costa Rican media. Monica Morales, a journalist for Costa Rican magazine Perfil, wrote in the publication that Arias invited her to sit on top of his leg at the end of a 2013 interview. Ramos, Arias' lawyer, said the Costa Rican prosecutor's office told him that only one case had been reported.
