25/05/2016 11:09:36

As part of the investigation into the attack by a heavily armed commando of the police station of Les Cayes https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-17467-haiti-flash-an-armed-commando-attack-the-police-station-of-les-cayes.html , Me Roosevelt Zamor, Government Commissioner at the Court of First Instance (TPI) of Jérémie invited the former rebel leader Guy Philippe, Senate candidate for Grand'Anse, qualified for the second round, under the banner "The National Consortium of Political Parties" to come to answer some questions, because his name was cited by members of the commando and reported in the press.

Furthermore, Me Zamor rejects the accusations made against him, of political persecution recalling that Guy Philippe was invited as a private citizen, ensuring that the prosecution has jurisdiction since the citizen resides is in its jurisdiction.

However, the delay of two days from the receipt of this invitation and the scheduled day (Tuesday 24 May) was considered too short to examine the file, bt the awyers of Guy Philippe, Me Desharles Joseph and Me Osnel Séjour, who Tuesday sought in person a postponement to at two weeks, request granted by the Commissioner of the Government, which has set the new date of hearing of Guy Philippe to 7 June.
