Haiti - Security : Renel Sénatus will expel the beggars...
Me Jean Renel Sénatus, the Government Commissioner not want to see beggars in front of banks and will do what is necessary without delay.
"[...] There are beggars in the areas of banks, law, legislation says that it is forbidden, it is not my words, it is the law of 1936 who says it. But since we live in a country that does not fulfill all the conditions [economic] [...] we can not go after all the beggars to tell them do not do that
[...] But there are beggars, who are part of networks of thieves who stand in front of the BRH to the Rue Pavée, in front of the BNC, of commercial banks and serve as scouts for thieves. When you exit the bank, they ask you money, if you are not able, or if this is not enough, well they make sure you get caught by robbers [...] I know the problem, I know the number of people who died after leaving a bank, I know how people were attacked for money [...]
As authority, we must address this question, we will open the records to take complaints from victims of such acts, so that we were investigating their cases, and we will take preventive measures. Also, tomorrow morning [Thursday], from 10:00 am, the Government Commissioner in person, will be in the street in front of banks to collect these people harassing people and say give me money... they can learn a trade, to work [...] we will address this problem, I do not say that I'll take all the beggars in the street, but I do not agree, they stand in front of or near banks"
