During a routine check in Dumez, at the entrance to the city of Jacmel, the National Police of Haiti (PNH) arrested Jean Baptiste Johnny (30 years old) from Marbial, a neighborhood of the commune of Jacmel.

During his arrest, Jean Baptiste Johnny was on board a minibus, accompanied by his wife Yvena Pierre and had in his possession a firearm, caliber 9mm, equipped with several cartridges.

The weapon he held is the property of the PNH and was at the disposal of an administrative employee attacked at his home, in Delmas 33, by three armed individuals, on June 2022.

During their first hearing, Jeana's wife admitted that her husband was a member of the "5 seconds" gang, operating at the southern entrance to Port-au-Prince.
