Haiti - Politics : The seat of Guy Philippe vacant in the Senate...
Because he was convicted and sentenced to 9 years detention by the American justice system for money laundering when he was commissioner of police in Haiti in the late 1990s and early 2000s, https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-21301-haiti-flash-9-years-in-prison-for-guy-philippe.html Guy Philippe, elected senator of Grand'Anse, will never sit in the Senate or will no longer be able to be a candidate in any other Haitian election.

Now the seat of Guy Philippe is technically vacant in the Senate, but it is up to the Executive to formally confirm to the Provisional Electoral Council (CEP) that there is a vacancy in the Upper House for the department of the Grand'Anse and to give a mandate to the Electoral Council for the organization of elections in this direction.

Without a mandate from the Executive, the CEP is not authorized to proceed with any new elections in Haiti, except indirect elections whose process is currently under way.
