Professional insurrectionist and convicted murderer Jodel Chamblain surrendered to authorities in Port Au Prince. This was proclaimed as "a noble gesture" by Haiti's new Justice Minister Bernard Gousse. It was Gousse's legal team that defended Chamblain and his cohorts in the failed coup attempts of 2000 and 2001.

Chamblain was the leader of "Baby Doc" Duvailier's Makoutte, the much feared and omnipresent death squads during the 80s. The Makoutte were disbanded during the military regime that held power when Duvailier fled from Haiti (after looting what was left of their treasury). The Haitian army, closely associated with Makoute, and with a 200 year tradition of corruption, was disbanded by Aristide shortly after his election in 1990.

Historical facts are from the US country study on Haiti and the Dominican republic (revised periodically) and news of Chamblain's surrender is from The Washington Post.

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
