Haiti - FLASH : Arrest of one of the intellectual authors of the assassination of President Moïse and an attempted coup

Sunday July 11, as part of the follow-up to the investigation into the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse, Léon Charles, Director General ai of the Haitian National Police (PNH), alongside Prime Minister ai Claude Joseph, in a press conference of Superior Council of the National Police (CSPN) announced the arrest of Christian Emmanuel Sanon (63, native of the commune of Marigot), a Haitian doctor installed for twenty years in Florida considered as the one of the intellectual authors of the commando operation.

It was the interrogations carried out among the 18 Colombians arrested that made it possible to learn that Charles Emmanuel Sanon had contacted a Venezuelan security company called "CTU security" based in Florida in order to recruit the 26 members of the commando linked to the assassination of the President Jovenel Moïse, said Charles

"This is an individual who entered Haiti aboard a private plane with political objectives" declared Léon Charles "Upon his arrival in the country in June, Charles Emmanuel Sanon, was accompanied by several Colombian nationals, in charge of 'ensure his safety' Police accuse him of recruiting the Colombians in order to oust the President from power and take his place.

Stressing that after the assassination "[...] when the bandits' advance was blocked, the first person they [the Colombians] called was Emmanuel Sanon [...] who in turn contacted two other people whom we consider to be intellectual authors of the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse," indicated Léon Charles without mentioning the identity of these two other intellectual authors, so as not to interfere in the ongoing investigation .

Adding that during the search of the residence of Christian Emmanuel Sanon "[...] we found a DEA cap, 6 cases for rifles and pistols, boxes of 12 and 9 mm cartridges, 4 license plates of the Republic Dominican, unloaded pistol magazines, 2 vehicles and correspondence addressed to several sectors in the country."

In addition, the Police took "precautionary measures" against the security officials of President Moïse and information is being collected to determine "the degree of involvement of each".

In the Colombian press, the hypothesis is raised that the Colombian ex-soldiers were deceived and served as a pretext to lead investigators on a false trail, in order to hide the real killers ...
