Another figure in Haiti’s political life accused of corruption

Port-au-Prince, May 22 (Prensa Latina) The observer of the Haitian Presidential Transitional Council (CPT), Frinel Joseph is accused today of corruption by several human rights organizations in Haiti.

One of them, signatory of a three-page report, is the Order of Human Rights Defenders, which demands a review of Joseph’s operations because of suspicions that he embezzled public funds.

Also hanging over him are questions related to preparations for a constitutional referendum that to date has yet to materialize.

According to them, the pastor’s presence in the CPT would be a deception, as it would cover up his involvement in criminal activities that endanger the security and future of the country.

Hence, he is denounced for his direct involvement in the embezzlement of vital funds intended for the intelligence services.

These resources were directed to enable the Haitian National Police to gather crucial information on gang modus operandi and to acquire the necessary equipment to fight crime. However, these funds were diverted from their original purpose through acts of corruption in which Joseph actively participated.
