Michel Présumé, the Director General of EDH informs that on August 5, 2021 during an inspection, it was noted the disappearance of more than 4,000 gallons of diesel on an order of 18,000 gallons at the Central Carrefour 3. Two trucks of fuel and their drivers were kept on site. A third driver fled, abandoning his truck before being checked.

Similar cases have been reported in Les Cayes and Port-de-Paix.

"Upon investigation, EDH discovered a fuel theft ring operating in the company's production plants. Significant differences were noted between the quantities of fuel ordered and those delivered. A situation which seriously affects the functioning of our various power plants," explained Michel Présumé.

The General Directorate promises to its subscribers to take all the necessary measures to put out of harm's way this mafia network in order to improve the supply of electric current.
