iciHaiti - AMH : Wave of kidnappings of doctors in Haiti
Jean Ardouin Louis Charles, Secretary General of the Haitian Medical Association (AMH), denounces a wave of kidnappings of doctors in Haiti "In just a few weeks, several health professionals have been kidnapped by criminals demanding exorbitant ransoms and forced to remain silent."

Dr. Louis Charles highlighted recent cases, such as that of Dr. Nicolás, a septuagenarian kidnapped and then released after paying a ransom. More recently, the young doctor Alain Pierre was the victim of a kidnapping in Lizon, Plaine du Cul-de-Sac, where his family is struggling to respond to the kidnappers' demands.

The Secretary General of the AMH expressed his dismay at this persistent violence, highlighting its devastating impacts on the availability of medical care for the already fragile Haitian population. He also highlighted the departure of many health professionals forced into exile due to this persistent insecurity, further aggravating the country's health crisis.

Dr. Louis Charles calls for urgent action from the authorities, emphasizing the need to restore security and fight against impunity.
