Haiti officials renew passport for Duvalier

Jan 07, 2013

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) -- Haitian officials have renewed the diplomatic passport of former dictator Jean-Claude Duvalier, his attorney said Saturday. Lawyer Reynold Georges said the country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs reissued the expired travel document for Duvalier last month as is customary for ex-presidents and former prime ministers. "They have to, because he's an ex-president," Georges said by telephone. "This is not something people should talk about. It's common practice."
