I sympathized with you on this awful occurence.

There should not be any lawful reasons why a police officer beat another individual on a traffic violation.

Let's analyze this case, it was said that the representative has guns, if he was aggressive, why is it that all his people got roughed up and not one of the police officers.

Once the representative identified himself as a member of the legislature, the police has a few options:

a) Escort the representative back to the proper road direction.

b) Give him a ticket for the infraction.

c) Let him go through with a warning etc.

The police opted not to do anything lawful.

It is only in Mathematics that 2 negatives create a positive, in this case the police is totally at fault.

The police all the time break the law, speeding, driving in the wrong direction etc, no one ver rough them up, and yet they are hired gun.

In Haiti and anywhere around the world senators are a force to be dealt with. In some countries they have what you call senate police, capitol police etc.

I remained clear on my position, the representative has the high ranking police officer summoned in court and he did not show, as a result, the lower chamber adopted a resolution, there is nothing hasty in that.

If they refused to come out as they claimed, how would they know that they have illegal guns, that the car was stolen, when haitian police do not have computers in their cars in order to check such things.

Worst of all, the representative was one of them, one would have to question why they would need to treat one of their own this way.

I believe that the police break the law.

1) Violations of Human Rights should not be tolerated.

2) In any civilized country a law maker should never be treated that way.
3) If he was culpable, I do not think that the police was equipped to make such a determination.

I reiterate again, they all need to be gone, so that the police force learn once and for all that this kind of behavior will not be tolerated.

If the prime minister refuse, he should get a vote of censure, and appeal to the president directly to get rid of these police officers.
