"Haitian Judge Issues Arrest Warrants for Former Presidents and Prime Ministers Over Corruption"

A judge in Haiti has issued arrest warrants for over 30 high-ranking officials, including former presidents and prime ministers, accusing them of misappropriation of funds or equipment related to Haiti’s National Equipment Center. The officials, including Michel Martelly and Jocelerme Privert, have denied the allegations, and no arrests have been made. Judge Al Duniel Dimanche has requested the accused to meet with him for questioning as the investigation continues, but it is common for Haitian government officials to ignore such requests without facing punishment.
