07/02/2012 09:44:12
One week after the publication, highly contested, of the closing order of the investigating judge Carvès Jean, responsible for the case Jean-Claude Duvalier, who recommends that the former dictator be tried for embezzlement of public funds but not for violations of human rights; Jean Renel Sénatus, the Government Commissioner announced that the appeals process, relative to this ordinance, was launched and that he had sent for this purpose, copies of the order of Judge Carvès, to the plaintiffs' lawyers who have filed complaints against Jean-Claude Duvalier.
The Commissioner reminded the lawyers, that they have 10 days from receipt of documents, to file their appeal.
Tuesday late afternoon, Pierre Esperance, Haitian human rights activist, said that the plaintiffs he's helping as part of this case had still not received the documents.
