Haiti gang massacres at least 110 people in Cite Soleil

9/12/2024 11:47
At least 110 people were killed over the weekend in Haiti's Cite Soleil slum when a gang leader targeted elderly people he suspected of causing his

child's illness through witchcraft, the National Human Rights Defense Network (RNDDH) said on Sunday.



All the victims were aged over 60, the rights group said.



Wharf Jeremie gang leader Monel "Mikano" Felix ordered the massacre after his child became sick, RNDDH said, saying that he sought advice from a Voodoo priest who accused elderly people in the area of harming the child through witchcraft.



Gang members killed at least 60 people on Friday and 50 on Saturday using machetes and knives, it said.



Cite Soleil, a densely populated slum by the port of the capital Port-au-Prince, is among the poorest and most violent areas of Haiti.
