Seventeen (17) suspected bandits have already been killed by the police, including gang leaders Ernst Julmé, alias “Ti Grèg” and Makandal,
The police also announce that seventeen (17) firearms seized: 12 gauge rifles, AK47, 9mm and M4 pistols and one (1) vehicle confiscated, during operations and interventions carried out by the PNH from February 29 to March 26 2024.
These operations and interventions were carried out following attacks perpetrated on public and private institutions by heavily armed individuals wanting, at all costs, to establish a climate of terror in the metropolitan region of Port-au-Prince.
Furthermore, in order to continue to secure and protect the lives and property of the population, the Commander-in-Chief of the PNH, Mr. Frantz Elbé, has issued formal instructions to the heads of specialized units of the PNH in order to intensify operations to allow citizens to go about their business with complete peace of mind.
It should be noted that the Haitian National Police reiterates its commitment to continuing the fight against armed gangs, while requesting, once again, the frank collaboration of members of the civilian population.
