The Haitian National Police conducted an operation on the evening of March 15th in the lower part of Delmas, in the stronghold of Jimmy Chérizier, known as Barbecue. According to Lionel Lazare, coordinator of SYNAPOHA, this intervention was carried out by CIMO agents with the aim of unblocking the Delmas thoroughfare, which had been obstructed by criminals for several days. "The operation mobilized CIMO agents with reinforcements from members of BOID and SWAT. Heavy machinery was used to clear the roads," Lazare said on Saturday morning. Lionel Lazare was unable to provide a tally of the operations. "We don't know the number of weapons recovered. We were told that several bandits were killed, but I don't have the exact figure," the unionist declared. The newspaper unsuccessfully attempted to contact the PNH spokesperson. Furthermore, in the midst of the operation, the newspaper learned that acts of vandalism were perpetrated by criminals in the lower part of Delmas and in La Saline. A car dealership was looted. The newspaper also learned that Caribbean Port Services S.A. was once again targeted by acts of vandalism last night. "Containers were looted. Our security forces are currently chasing them to regain control of the facilities this Saturday," a source close to the National Port Authority (APN) confided to Le Nouvelliste.
