Haiti charges ‘Baby Doc’ Duvalier

Former Haitian leader Jean-Claude 'Baby Doc' Duvalier is seen in his hotel room in Port-au-Prince on 17 January 2011Mr Duvalier made a surprise return to Haiti on Sunday

Former Haitian leader Jean-Claude “Baby Doc” Duvalier has been questioned by judicial officials and was later led out of his hotel by police.

He was questioned over claims he stole from the country’s treasury. It is not clear whether he has been arrested.

Haiti’s chief prosecutor and a judge were seen arriving at his hotel in Port-au-Prince earlier on Tuesday.

Mr Duvalier, who ruled the country for 15 years before being ousted in 1986, made a surprise return to Haiti Sunday.

“He will be questioned and he will remain at the disposal of the judicial system,” a senior government official, who asked not to be named, told Reuters news agency earlier.

There have been growing calls for Mr Duvalier to be prosecuted for the alleged torture and murder of thousands of people during his rule in the 1970s and 80s.

Upon his return, Mr Duvalier said he had “come to help” after last year’s earthquake.

Jean-Claude ‘Baby Doc’ DuvalierTook over presidency aged just 19 when his father, Haiti’s authoritarian leader Francois “Papa Doc” Duvalier, died in 1971Called himself “president-for-life” and ruled with an iron fist, aided by a brutal private militia known as the Tontons MacoutesAccused of corruption and human rights abuses that prompted more than 100,000 Haitians to flee the country during his presidencyRuled for 15 years before outbreak of popular protests led him to flee to France in 1986Asked Haitian people for forgiveness for “errors” made during his rule in a 2007 radio interviewReturned to Haiti as it was supposed to hold run-off election to choose successor to outgoing President Rene Preval, although vote has been postponedBaby Doc’s return evokes dark past

He returned on the day Haiti was supposed to hold the second round of elections to choose a successor to outgoing President Rene Preval.

But the vote has been postponed because of a dispute over which candidates should be on the ballot paper.

Provisional results from the first round on 28 November provoked violent demonstrations when they were announced in December, and most observers said there was widespread fraud and intimidation.

Mr Duvalier is staying in a hotel in the hills above the centre of the capital, Port-au-Prince. The building has been sealed off by police.

He was just 19 when he inherited the title of “president-for-life” from his father, the notorious Francois “Papa Doc” Duvalier, who had ruled Haiti since 1957.

Critics allege he embezzled millions of dollars from the impoverished Caribbean nation, a charge he denies.

Like his father, he relied on a brutal private militia known as the “Tontons Macoutes”, which controlled Haiti through violence and intimidation.

Haiti is struggling to recover from the massive earthquake a year ago which killed more than 250,000 people and left Port-au-Prince in ruins.

Major earthquake hits SW Pakistan

A strong earthquake measuring 7.2 has hit south-western Pakistan, in a desert area bordering Iran and Afghanistan, the US Geological Survey says.

The quake struck at 0123 on Wednesday (2023 GMT on Tuesday), some 55 km (34 miles) west of Dalbandin in Pakistan. Reports of its depth were variable.

It was located several hundred kilometres from the Pakistani city of Quetta and the city of Zahedan, Iran.

The 7.6-magnitude Kashmir earthquake of October 2005 killed 73,000 people.

In its initial reports the US Geological Survey (USGS) said the quake happened at a depth of just 10km (6.2 miles).

Earthquakes at such a shallow depth have the potential to cause major destruction and loss of life.

However, a later bulletin from the USGS revised the depth of the quake to 84km (52 miles) underground, potentially limiting the effects.

The area hit by the recent earthquake is sparsely populated and is located in a seismically active zone.

However, major population centres are fairly close to the epicentre.

The Iranian city of Zahedan, some 310km (195 miles) west of the quake, is home to some 570,000 people.

The historic Iranian city of Bam, west of Zahedan, was devastated by an earthquake in 2003.

In Pakistan, the Baluchistan provincial capital of Quetta is also home to 560,000 people.

The Pakistani province of Baluchistan is a focus of some militant activity, sharing a long and porous border with conflict zones in southern Afghanistan.

No immediate details of any damage were available, but reports said the quake was felt in neighbouring provinces.

TV reports said the quake was felt as far away as Karachi and outside the quake zone in Dubai in the Gulf.

Pakistan is still dealing with the aftermath of devastating floods in the 2010 monsoon season, as well as battling Taliban militants in several tribal areas.
