Scandal and Corruption Threatens Political Stability on Both Sides

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) - Feb 24, 2012 -
An investigation, by Haitian Prime Minister Dr. Garry Conille, into contracts worth several hundred million dollars that would have been granted unfairly to Dominican companies with close ties to President Fernandez, threatens to bring about a political crisis that can explode both sides of the island.

Former Prime Minister Jean Max Bellerive signed those contracts just a few days before leaving office on May 14th, 2011. The investigation by the audit commission created by Conille might reveal that the kickback from this deal served to finance the campaign of the then presidential candidate Michel Martelly. The three main companies under investigation in these contracts are Constructora Rofi , Constructora Hadom , Construcciones y Disenos RMN; all three believed to belong to Dominican strongman Senator Felix Bautista. The senator is well known for being Dominican President Fernandez’s right hand and financier. Felix Bautista has an exhaustive infamous record in Dominican Republic ranging from bribe, mismanagement of government funds, corruption and more. He has also been under investigation for apparent links with notorious drug lord Figueroa Agosto.

Haiti since the earthquake of January 2012, has received over 4 billion dollars worth aids from international donors. More than 2 years after the disaster most of the money is unaccounted for.
The blame has been shifted back and forward from corruption of government officials, ONGs, to lack of coordination in the disbursement of the aid.

This story is not just about the misuse of desperately needed funds for the poorest country in the northern hemisphere, but the story of how one man rises among the corrupted government officials and attempts to bring order in country of chaos at the risk of losing his credibility, his career and possibly his life.

The Haitian President, Michel Martelly pressured by his counterpart in Dominican Republic has demanded Prime Minister Conille to cancel the investigation into the matter or resign.

Early today, the Prime Minister has received direct threats from armed tugs linked to the Haitians President.

I have privileged information on the matter and wish to make this story public to mainstream media, so that the world can know what is really going on in Haiti and why the change so desperately needed cannot come about.
