The Civil and Commercial Court No. 11 of Lomas de Zamora ordered two telephone companies to pay 16.5 million pesos plus interest to a couple who lived about 25 meters from a 48-meter communications tower in a residential neighborhood in southern Greater Buenos Aires. The lawsuit was filed in May 2000. The ruling dismissed the claim against the municipality and rejected the claims for physical and psychological harm.

In 45 seconds

  • The ruling set 16.5 million pesos plus interest: 10 million for moral damages for the man, 5 million for the woman and 1.5 million for psychotherapy treatment.
  • The 48-meter tower was installed in 1996 with a location certificate and approved plans; an ordinance from January 2001 banned such antennas in residential areas.
  • The municipality closed the station in 2002, but the ruling found it kept operating until June 2009, when no radioelectric activity was detected.
