"
Petion-ville, January 22, 2016

His Excellency Michel Joseph Martelly,
President of the Republic of Haiti
In its offices.-

His excellence

I regret to present my resignation as member of the Provisional Electoral Council (Cep)

Since I took office January 21, 2015, I ceased to act on behalf of the society to ensure the proper application of the Constitution, the law and the Electoral Decree, that, for the realization of elections free, fair, democratic and inclusive and demanding the respect of human rights of all actors involved in the electoral process.

Because of my deep convictions and fully aware of the extent of my missions, I can not be an accomplice of elections marred by credibility deficit which necessarily will lead to political instability and installation of illegitimate leaders.

I took the time to take this decision, thinking that reason would eventually take over the absurd ; unfortunately, despite my multitudes positions and those of institutions or citizens by pulling the alarm, the Cep and you continue to persist in violation of the most basic political rights. Now today, this political choice leads to a crisis that could have been avoided, whose the outcome is uncertain.

Me Jacceus Joseph
Member of the Provisional Electoral Council

CC
To members of Cep
To the human rights sector"
