BOUNTY FOR HAITIAN TRIO
Haitian authorities are offering a bounty on three key suspects in last month’s assassination of President Jovenel Moise.
Moise was killed on July 7 when a hit team burst into the presidential residence and shot him dead. His wife was wounded but survived.
Justice Minister Rockefeller Vincent said the government is offering six million gourdes ($84,000) for help in arresting the wanted men.
The fugitives are Wendelle Coq Thelot, a former Supreme Court judge who was fired by Moise earlier in the year; Joseph Felix Badio, a former anti-corruption official; and John Joel Joseph, a former opposition senator.
More than a month after Moise’s assassination, it remains a mystery who ordered and sponsored the killing, in which not a single police officer from the presidential security detail was targeted.
