Fed up with gang violence, Haitians are hunting down people they suspect of being connected to these infamous armed groups, not hesitating to kill them. The movement – called Bwa Kale – began on April 24 in Port-au-Prince and quickly spread around the country. Dozens of people have been killed by vigilante mobs, often after very brief questioning.
On April 24, Haitian police stopped a minibus carrying 14 men with weapons and ammunition who were driving through the Canapé Vert neighbourhood of Port-au-Prince.
