1 Février 2011 !! Une date cruciale pour J.C. Duvalier…..et pour Haiti

Port-au Prince, Haïti--Lorsque Jean-Claude Duvalier soudainement émergé d'exil le week-end dernier, disant qu'il a été en Haïti « pour aider » sa patrie dévastée, la peur sait répandue immédiatement dans les foyers haïtiens que l'ancien dictateur est venu reprendre le pouvoir qu’il avait perdu en 1984.

Une des raisons que Duvalier est retourne de la France c’est pour une question d’argent d’abord et peut être pour le pouvoir ensuite……si c’est possible.

Bien que Duvalier a longtemps été accusé de pillage de $300 millions de dollars du pays avant de s'enfuir il y a près de 25 ans de cela, ses avocats et ses cronies ont dit que la plus grande partie de son argent a été gaspillée sur une vie fastueuse de bijoux, châteaux, voitures luxueuse et sportives et avant un « bloody » divorce avec sa femme Michelle Bennet.

Cette semaine encore, un des avocats de Duvalier a dit que lorsque son client a été traîné devant un tribunal haïtien et a demandé comment il a pris en charge de lui-même, Duvalier a répondu : avec l'aide des amis.

Mais environ 6 millions de dollars se trouve encore gelé dans un compte en Suisse et Duvalier a promis de faire tout effort pour l'obtenir. Fonctionnaires haïtiennes, défenseurs de droits de l'homme et les conseillers de gouvernement dire que Duvalier a retourne au pays le week-end dernier dans le seul but de contourner une nouvelle loi qui rendra plus difficile pour lui de récupérer ces $6 Million.

« Comme a rat contemplant un morceau de fromage dans une ratière bien tendue, JC Duvalier a pris sa chance, », a déclaré un conseiller du gouvernement haïtien.

Cette stratégie se montre de plus en plus difficile e peut être mal tournée. Dans une scène frappante et spectaculaire, Duvalier a été dechouké hors de son hôtel par des policiers armés mardi et formellement accusé de corruption et de détournement de fonds durant son règne de près de 15 ans.

Ces $6 Million qui reste de son avoir en banque Suisse est depuis longtemps une source de discorde international. L'an dernier, quelques heures avant le tremblement de terre qui a dévasté Haïti, Cour supérieure de la Suisse a statué que 4,6 millions de dollars au moins doit être accordé a JC Duvalier, ce qui a incité un tollé quand la décision a été publiée.

Les fonctionnaires suisses, désireuses de nettoyer l'image de leur pays comme un dépôt de la dictature, ont répondu au tollé en passant rapidement ce qu'on appelle le droit de Duvalier, en leur donnant plus de discrétion pour retourner les biens aux pays qu'ils ont été volés.
Mais la nouvelle loi ne va pas en vigueur avant le 1er février, ce qui peut expliquer le moment du déménagement de Duvalier.

Selon les règles actuelles, les Etats faisant des revendications de l'argent en Suisse doivent démontrer qu'ils ont commencé une enquête criminelle contre le contrevenant présumé avant que les fonds peuvent être retournés.

Donc si Duvalier a pu se glisser en chat paint dans le pays et ensuite tranquillement quitter sans incident, comme il était prévu de faire ce jeudi. Si le gouvernement le laisse partir sans le mettre en prison contre ces accusations, cela démontrerait qu’Haïti a blanchi JCD et n’est plus intéressé à cet argent que le pays a si grandement besoin.

Mème s'il laisse le pays sans ètre emprisonné;il ne pourra pas récupérer le magot;il est en état d'accusation pour corruption et enrichissement illicite.
Le tour est joué.

Understanding Jean Claude Duvalier’s weekend visit to Haiti

ALTERNATIVE CROP OF ABD102 -

Haiti's former dictator Jean-Claude 'Baby Doc' Duvalier, right, gestures to supporters on the balcony of his hotel room in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Wednesday Jan. 19, 2011.

Duvalier returned Sunday to Haiti after nearly 25 years in exile, a surprising move that comes as his country struggles with a political crisis and the stalled effort to recover from last year's devastating earthquake. A judge will decide whether Duvalier will be tried on charges that include corruption and embezzlement for allegedly pilfering the treasury before his 1986 ouster, according to his lawyer.
Earthquake, cholera, and presidential elections, move over!
Former Haitian president Jean Claude Duvalier, a less lethal form of death that tormented Haiti for 15 years almost three decades earlier, is in the house, fresh from Paris where he has been in exile since his February 1986 violent overthrow.

Since last Sunday around 6 PM when he landed aboard Air France at Haiti International Airport pundits and ordinary citizens have been asking the same two questions: Why this sudden visit and why now.
Responses so far abound but are for the most part unconvincing. All responses share a common element, though: President Préval may be trying to divert attention from his problems, the presidential election in particular. Not true.
Indeed, as Jean Claude Duvalier - his passport now seized - is again holed up in his hotel room after he has been questioned for more than four hours Tuesday by the Justice system, this is what’s known.

Jean Claude Duvalier’s unexpected arrival in Haiti coincides with a one-year old Swiss law that will take effect at the beginning of February – February 1st to be exact. This law is known as the Lex Duvalier law (Restitution of Illicit Assets Act, RIAA), which allows the Swiss cabinet to block ill-gained funds and assets and gives a ten-year time period in which the assets can be confiscated after being blocked.
This confiscated fund once returned to the interested country must be used to improve the quality of life for the wider population, strengthening the judicial system, and the fight against crime.

It’s apparent that this law may lead to an immediate confiscation of the Duvalier money evaluated at about $7 million right after February 1, 2011.
However, there is a provision under the same law that allows Duvalier and other corrupt individuals to try to recoup their confiscated money and assets as long as they return to their native country and the local justice system doesn’t bring any charges against them.
So, Jean Claude Duvalier, the king of corruption and currently living in “relative poverty” according to various reports, returned to Haiti for a brief visit as part of his effort to get back his money, confidently assuming he wouldn’t be detained nor charged when setting foot in Haiti.

That’s the fundamental issue but there are at least two other factors that further prod him to make this trip.

One, there has been in Haiti a gradual recycling of some high officials (military and civil) of the despised Duvalier regime, starting with Aristide in 2000, pursued systematically during the interim Boniface/Latortue regime and unfortunately kept during this second Préval term.

Further, all three major candidates harbor their own macoutes while a Martelly win would surely bring Haiti back to the pre-1986 environment. Duvalier may think he can count on a few friends to plead his case vis a vis the current officials.

Two, the unstable, volatile political and social environment may have given Duvalier and his cronies the false hope that the people of Haiti have better things and they would go their sad and oblivious way.

Jean Claude Duvalier has again miscalculated.

It’s time that the full weight of the justice system is thrown at him.
For this to happen, the people of Haiti have to demand – and diligently work for - no less.

Mwen gen yon move kalkil...

Si mouche pat rantre an Ayiti, li tap pèdi lajan an...

Lè fèt ke li rantre, li pran yon chans....

Se yon chans ki pa koute li anyen.....

De tout fason, tan mouche ale viv tankou homeless an Frans, pito li rete an Ayiti...

Se klè ke mouche pap janm wè lajan sa a anko.....

Haitian lawyer seeking Canadian help in case against Duvalier

January 21, 2011
MONTREAL — Haitian-Canadians need to come forward with their stories of human rights abuses suffered under former dictator Jean-Claude (Baby Doc) Duvalier, a leading Haitian lawyer said Friday.

Mario Joseph, who works for a human rights organization in Port-au-Prince, is seeking evidence to build a case against Duvalier that would see him charged with crimes against humanity.

“I’m calling on the diaspora in Canada to file complaints against Duvalier,” he told a news conference in Montreal. “I need them to mobilize.”Duvalier unexpectedly returned to Haiti last Sunday, the first time he’s been back in the country since being ousted by a popular uprising in 1986.
Haitian prosecutors have since charged him with corruption and embezzlement during his 15-year rule.
But Duvalier’s critics argue those charges should be expanded, taking into account the rampant torture and murder that characterized his regime.
Rights group Amnesty International announced Friday it gave more than 100 documents to the Haitian government this week detailing rights abuses under Duvalier.

The group said Haitian authorities have indicated they are opening an investigation into a possible crimes against humanity charge.
“Investigating Jean-Claude Duvalier for the human rights crimes committed during his time in power is a massive step forward,” Amnesty said in a statement.

“What we need to see now is a swift and impartial process, in line with international standards, that truly brings justice for those who have been waiting for too long.”
There are about 100,000 Canadians of Haitian origin; many fled Haiti because of human-rights abuses committed by the regimes of Baby Doc and his father, François (Papa Doc) Duvalier.

But Canada’s diaspora community also likely includes former members of Duvalier’s government.

Local activists believe at least two ex-Duvalier cabinet ministers are living in the Montreal-area.“The Canadian government has to make an effort” toward prosecuting these individuals, Joseph said.

“Now that the file is open, it shouldn’t only be about Duvalier but all these others as well.”
