Former Haitian President Aristide makes rare court appearance
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti, CMC – Former Haitian President Jean Bertrand Aristide on Wednesday held a three-hour, closed-door audience with a Haitian investigative judge, as part of the ongoing murder investigation into the unsolved assassination of agronomist-turned-journalist Jean Léopold Dominique.
At the urging of Dominique’s widow, former radio journalist Michèle Montas, Judge Yvickel Dabresil has been trying to determine the “intellectual author” behind Dominique’s murder and that of a security guard 13 years ago in the courtyard of Dominique’s Radio Haiti-Inter here.
“It has been a long, bloody and tortuous investigation, but I feel there is now a light at the end of the tunnel,” Montas told reporters afterwards. “Will we ever find justice? I don’t know, but I think we have moved forward. “I hope this testimony and other crucial ones the judge has gathered in the last few months will allow the truth to finally come out on who engineered, planned the assassination and paid for the crime,” she added.
