Haiti - Politic : Gaillot Dorsainvil, «the untouchable»...
Pierre Louis Opont, the Director General of the Provisional Electoral Council (CEP) confirmed that Gaillot Dorsainvil [subject of numerous allegations of fraud and corruption, following the opaque publication of election results] was back to his office for two weeks [!] after months of absence...

A return in all discretion... In all likelihood, and under all reserves, , the President of CEP, had to receive a favorable court decision, making it free of his movement.

The Chief Executive indicated that he had no information on the arrest warrant issued against Gaillot Dorsainvil for several reasons "First, it was a matter of justice, it's a thing that concerns the President and the lawyers in charge to defend him, secondly, I always try to stand out from the things that concern the advisers directly, so I can not answer about the nature of legal disputes between the advisers and the Haitian justice [...]

If I told that the lack of advisers has not hampered the functioning of the Board, I should also say that advisers are not necessary for the Council. For me, there is a quantity of work that should have been done and was not done because of their unavailability [...]

[...] today the Council is facing to a certain fragility, because the Electoral Council as an institution [...] has not the national representation that it should have and even in our relations with other institutions, we feel that the CEP has no credibility to negotiate with our partners..."
