02/10/2023 08:17:39

Agents of the Haitian National Police (PNH) intercepted and seized four tricycle-type motorcycles, loaded with contraband goods on the border strip, near Poningot, adjacent to the Dominican Republic, between the municipalities of Pepillo Salcedo (Manzanillo ) and Dajabon.

Motorcycles loaded with eggs, spaghetti, flour, rice, peppers and other products and goods from the country would be transported to the locality of Férié...

The drivers of the motorcycles were arrested and taken with the merchandise to the Ounaminthe police station (North-East of Haiti).

All prices have increased and prices for basic necessities are rare, especially since the closure of all Dominican borders https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-40503-haiti-flash-dr-closes-its-land-sea-and-air-borders-with-haiti-goods-and-passengers.html , smuggling has grown and this is why the Haitian Police have launched a crackdown campaign against smugglers.

Furthermore, due to attempts to traffic illegal immigrants and goods, several people were injured and arrested during clashes with members of the Dominican army in the La Vigía area.
