Rnddh asks to open an investigation against Haitian police

Port-au-Prince, Aug 24 (Prensa Latina) The National Network for the Defense of Human Rights (Rnddh) today asked the Police to open an investigation against police officer Bermanuel Derose and his accomplices for the attack against the headquarters of the institution.

According to the institution, the aggression was perpetrated about two hours after the publication of the Rnddh’s report on the acts of violence against several localities in the departments of Artibonite and West, including Carrefour Feuilles.

The platform wrote a letter to the chief inspector general of the Police, Fritz Saint-Fort, and denounced the assailants fired live ammunition at the front door of their premises, which also damaged the electrical system.

Last week the Network issued a report and deplored that at least 73 people were killed in August, 54 of them in Carrefour Feuilles, a neighborhood on the outskirts of the capital.

For the organization, the inaction of the state security forces allows the government led by Ariel Henry to justify to the international community its request for foreign military intervention, while protecting the gangs and retaining power.

Furthermore, the platform criticized the attitude of the Police Director, Frantz Elbe, who, in their opinion, orders the agents to bombard the population with tear gas when they demonstrate peacefully to demand protection and help from the State.
