U.S. indicts four people for conspiring to smuggle arms to Haiti's 400 Mawozo gang

U.S. prosecutors have indicted three Haitians and one U.S. citizen for conspiring to smuggle arms to Haiti's 400 Mawozo gang, which last year kidnapped a group of missionaries from the United States and Canada.

The indictment by U.S. attorneys for the District of Columbia alleges that the four people, including extradited 400 Mawozo leader Joly "Yonyon" Germine, conspired to violate export control laws, the Department of Justice said in a statement. 

Eliande Tunis, 43, a U.S. citizen, as well as Haitian citizens Jocelyn Dor, 29, and Walder St. Louis, 33, were also named as part of the conspiracy. Haiti's police on Tuesday said Germine had been extradited to the United States.
