Reactions to the Cité Soleil Massacre: Office de Protection du Citoyen : "The Office de Protection du Citoyen (OPC) expresses its indignation and deep sadness following the tragic massacre of more than 184 Haitian citizens, aged between 60 and 80, ordered by the gang leader "Micanor" in Cité Soleil (Warf Jérémie). These inhumane acts motivated by unfounded superstitious beliefs, constitute a flagrant violation of human rights and an affront to human dignity. The OPC recalls that accusations of witchcraft in no way justify violence or summary execution. The elderly, who have contributed so much to society, deserve respect and protection, and not to be victims of unacceptable violence. » Brian A. Nicols, Under Secretary of State : "I am appalled by reports of the massacre of approximately 200 people by gangs in Haiti. We strongly condemn these brutal killings, which continue to add to the suffering of the Haitian people. We urge the international community to strengthen its support for the MMSS." France : "France condemns in the strongest possible terms the massacre that claimed the lives of more than 184 people, mostly elderly, in the Wharf Jérémie neighborhood of Port-au-Prince on December 6 and 7. We extend our condolences to the loved ones of the victims of this massacre and express our full support for the Haitian authorities and people. France welcomes the commitment of the national authorities to bring to justice the perpetrators of these barbaric crimes."
