The leader of the G9 gang, Jimmy Chérizier, alias “Barbecue,” has denied being injured during a large-scale operation involving several specialised security forces and drones is Bas-Delmas over the last weekend.
Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé confirmed the operation targeting gangs in Bas-Delmas, home to some of Haiti’s development, and containing popular commercial zones such as Marché de Delmas.
“The Task Force created by the government and the Presidential Transitional Council (CPT), in less than 48 hours, is already yielding results. A large-scale operation is underway in Bas-Delmas, and several gang members have already been neutralized. Security forces are mobilized, and a state of readiness has been declared,” Fils-Aimé wrote on the social media platform X.
“The state will not give in to terror. Haitian people, keep hope: the government stands with you in these difficult times. The fight against gangs is advancing. Haiti will take control of its destiny! The PNH is going on the offensive against armed gangs,” he added.
