23/09/2019 13:12:44
This Monday, day scheduled for the presentation of the general policy statement of the Prime Minister named Fritz William Michel https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-28818-haiti-flash-high-risk-day-2nd-attempt-to-ratify-the-pm-this-monday-official.html , Senator Jean-Marie Ralph Fethière (PHTK, North) claiming to want to defend himself against the demonstrators who had burst in the enclosure of the legislative palace, took out his weapon and shot at height of man.
Fethière explained, "I defended myself. Self-defense is a sacred right," he said, ignoring the fact that a journalist was touched. In fact, the Associated Press (AP) photojournalist, Dieu-nalio Chéry, was slightly wounded in the jaw by a bullet burst during this incident, that was removed to the hospital.
Another person was injured, Léon Leblanc, an employee of Parliament who confirmed that he was already in the hospital.
After the incidents of the morning, the meeting was postponed "sine die" a second time, remember that on September 11th the Senate sitting was prevented by the minority radical opposition in the Senate helped by armed militants who had ransacked everything https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-28727-haiti-flash-the-senate-stormed-and-ransacked-by-armed-militants-of-the-opposition.html
