Haiti - Social : Friday, the displaced of camp Sylvio Cator will be evacuated 13/07/2011 13:34:36
After a series of meetings, the Mayor Muscadin Jean-Yves Jason has indicated to the displaced, the permanent abandonment of their shelters to a new site, located at Boulevard Harry Truman (Bicentenaire) near the premises of the Electricity of Haiti. "The mayor Jason told us, you must either willingly or by force, leave the space next Friday for the necessary follow-up", have reported some displaced on the site. For his part, Charles Delson, the Spokesman of the camp committee, indicated that the IDPs are ready to evacuate the place through "accompanying measures, that allow displaced people to live in dignity [...] We have the right to be relocated in a healthy environment and not in an area likely to aggravate our situation." While the mayor estimated to 40, the number of families living around the stadium, the figure provided by the Camp Committee exceeds 500 families. "We conducted our census in the night and we counted 514 families," says the Committee. The displaced fear that once evacuated, they are abandoned, "We are very concerned about the evacuation announced by the mayor of Port-au-Prince, who intends to act in many ways as the City Council of Delmas last May or persons expelled were abandoned to their fate and have received nothing to date" complained a young mother living near the stadium "In 48 hours, the authorities will be able to install us at Bicentenaire where nothing is installed to welcome us ? [...] Install us during the rainy season, install us at the Bicentenaire, near swamps and the sea, will protect us more ?. These are the questions raised by the displaced say they have received the day before, the express visit of President Michel Martelly which would have assured his support.
