Abstract

Haiti under the gun
Nairn, Allan | January 8, 1996 issue

add to cart   close window

In the face of rising outrage in Haiti that paramilitaries are still armed and at large, the U.S. government has again denied collaborating with the perpetrators including FRAPH, the hit squad, whose leader Emmanuel Constant, worked for the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. But evidence just discovered indicates that, starting in mid-1993, FRAPH was launched on its reign of terror with secret shipments of U.S. arms, and that still active FRAPH members have been used recently in U.S. occupation operations. Senior U.S. officials have also intervened to free FRAPH leaders from jail after they have been arrested by Haitian authorities or by field-level U.S. troops.
