Haiti - Justice : The Government Commissioner Daméus resigns


Haiti - Justice : The Government Commissioner Daméus resigns

Friday, February 2, the Government Commissioner at the Procuratorate of Port-au-Prince, Me Ocnam Clame Dameus, who had been blamed on January 25 https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-23416-haiti-justice-the-minister-fortunate-blames-the-government-commissioner-dameus.html by the Minister of Justice Heidi Fortuné for his prejudicial behavior in the negligent treatment of certain files has handed his resignation to the Minister. Recall that Commissioner Dameus replaced at this position Jean Danton Léger who had resigned in March 2017.

Commissioner Dameus was not on his first call to order https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-22783-haiti-justice-the-minister-of-justice-warns-the-commissioner-of-the-government.html and was at the origin of the prohibition of exit of the country of the former Minister of the Economy Yves Romain Bastien and the former Minister of Justice Me Camille Edouard Junior https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-22511-haiti-flash-two-former-ministers-under-privert-banned-from-leaving-the-territory.html . Note that on January 9 he received in Salt Lake City, Utah (USA) an honorary plaque for his determination in its fight against corruption and human trafficking.

In his letter, less than a year since he took office, he does not explain the reasons for his resignation, but we can only assume that he was beginning to disturb too many people and that he had become uncontrollable, not hesitating to publicly disagree...

Letter of resignation :

"Port-au-Prince, February 2, 2018

Mr. Heidi Fortuné

Minister of Justice and Public Security

In his offices

Minister,

I hereby inform you that I am leaving the office of Government Commissioner of Port-au-Prince. This decision is effective upon receipt.

Clamé Ocnam Daméus
