PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti, CMC - A senior United Nations humanitarian official is expressing grave concern about recent incidents of forced evictions of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Haiti. Acting UN Humanitarian Coordinator in Haiti, Ross Mountain, made the comment following a visit to a site from which thousands of people were forced to leave. While recognizing the right of owners to enjoy their property, Mountain recalled that the practice of forced eviction often results in violations of human rights such as the right to life and security of the individual.
