During this operation, more than a dozen people were arrested including at least 4 minors. Several nightclubs in the vicinity of schools located on Rue Capois have been sealed for non-compliance with the standards of the hotel industry because they are likely to encourage pimping and prostitution among young people in particular.

According to Juan Carlos Chevalier, Director of the Municipal Administration of Port-au-Prince, also present in this nocturnal inspection "all hotel establishments and nightclubs of the place have the obligation to conform themselves to the principles in force in accordance with the laws of the Republic to combat in particular against the child prostitution that gangrene our society."
