Haiti - FLASH : The Ambassador of Haiti in Chile accused of rape
New scandal involving a Haitian diplomat abroad, Monesty Junior Fanfil, the Haitian Ambassador to Chile is accused of repeatedly raping a woman cleaning worker at the Embassy building.

A case which occupies the front page of the news especially on the site of the Chilean National Television (TVN) on the Channel "24 hours" and its website since March 19, 2021.

The victim, who has lived in Chile for 4 years and who wishes to remain anonymous for fear of reprisals, declared on "Channel 24" that the Ambassador had forced her for the past two years to have sex, in addition to physically assaulting her on several occasions while she was working in the Embassy building cleaning work

“An Ambassador has a lot of power in this country, and he can do anything. I am a poor woman and I cannot denounce him, ”she said, explaining that Fanfil had threatened to take her to the police if she refused to be with him he had the right to call the Chilean Police Investigation Service (PDI) to say she was a thief. "

Unable to stand up to these threats any longer, the mother of four children filed a complaint, following this complaint the Parquet de l'Est decreed a protective measure, so that the physical well-being of the complainant and her children was guaranteed. and opened an investigation.

For his part Winder Darcelin, Representative of the Haitian community in Chile, asked the Chilean Government "[...] to take measures" considering "[...] these are things that cannot continue to happen [...] "
