Haiti - FLASH : «Baby Doc» the investigation continues, criminals not prosecuted (Report) 21/03/2018 08:02:35 The report "Case Jean-Claude Duvalier and consorts : In Haiti the investigation continues, criminals not prosecuted", presented this week in Port au Prince, reviews the various stages of the procedure against those responsible for the regime of Jean-Claude Duvalier. Started in 2008, the procedure was not really launched until the return of Jean-Claude Duvalier in Haiti in January 2011. The report recalls the obstacles that the civil party victims and their lawyers had to overcome, and the difficulties still encountered today in closing the supplementary investigation requested by the Court of Appeal in February 2014, in order to send the perpetrators front a Court of Assizes to be tried for crimes against humanity and financial crimes. Only 7 of the original 17 people are still alive, while others close to the power of Jean-Claude Duvalier could and should be charged and sent to trial, the report said. The FIDH, the RNDDH and the ECHR call on the Haitian authorities to demonstrate a real will to make justice, the fight against impunity and the rule of law a priority, by guaranteeing the independence of the judiciary while granting him sufficient means to carry out his mission.
