Colombia president: evidence implicates ex-soldiers in Haiti
Colombian President Iván Duque said Wednesday there is evidence and testimony that seriously implicate “practically all” of the former Colombian soldiers being held in Haiti in the assassination of that country’s president, Jovenel Moïse. In an interview with The Associated Press, Duque said the arrested ex-soldiers still need to be tried, but that “clearly, based on the testimony of many,” it is evident “that there is a level of implication” in the July 7 killing of Moïse, who was assassinated at his home in Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince. More than 40 people have been arrested in Haiti in connection with the killing, including several Haitian police officers, a former Haitian senator and 18 former Colombian soldiers.
