Description:

  • Michèle Montas pale avèk Jean Roland Chéry sou ankèt k ap kontinye sou asasinay Jean Dominique, sitou sou manda jij enstriksyon Bernard Saint-Vil ki vin ranplase jij Claudy Gassant. Yo pale sou detay dosye a: sou jan ankèt la bloke, sou jan ankèt la rekile, sou lanmò sispèk Wilner Lalanne ak Panel Rénélus, sou kesyon iminite palmantè Dany Toussaint, epi sou si Saint-Vil pral oblije rekòmanse a zewo oubyen kontinye kote Gassant kite enstriksyon an. Yo pale tou sou mantalite ki fè l enpansab ke sistèm jidisyè a ta ka entèpele lapolis ak lòt otorite. Montas eksplike koman dosye Jean Dominique tounen yon senbòl malfonksyònman sistèm lajistis an Ayiti an jeneral, ak koman mobilizasyon popilè ak mobilizasyon entènasyonal (tankou fim «Agwonòm nan») kenbe ka Jean Dominique vivan ak enpòtan, 2 zan aprè.

  • Michèle Montas speaks with Jean Roland Chéry about the ongoing investigation into the assassination of Jean Dominique, particularly the appointment of judge Bernard Saint-Vil to replace Claudy Gassant. They discuss the details of the case, including the delays and obstacles, the suspicious deaths of Wilner Lalanne and Panel Rénélus, Dany Toussaint's claims of parliamentary immunity, and the hope that Saint-Vil will pick up where Gassant left off so that the investigation does not have to start all over again. They speak of a mentality that makes it unthinkable that the justice system would question police and other authorities. Montas describes how the Jean Dominique case has become emblematic for the dysfunctional Haitian justice system in general, and how grassroots action and international mobilization (including the film The Agronomist) have kept the Jean Dominique case alive and relevant, two years on.

  • Jean Roland interviewe Michèle Montas au sujet de l'enquête en cours sur l'assassinat de Jean Dominique, notamment sur la nomination du juge Bernard Saint-Vil à la place de Claudy Gassant. Ils se penchent sur les détails du dossier : délais et obstacles, morts suspectes de Wilner Lalanne et de Panel Rénélus, question de l'immunité parlementaire de Dany Toussaint et l'espoir que Saint-Vil continue dans les pas de Gassant plutôt que de tout reprendre à zéro. Ils parlent de la mentalité qui rend inconcevable l'idée que la justice puisse interpeller des policiers ou des personnes haut placées. Montas explique comment le cas de Jean Dominique est devenu emblématique du dysfonctionnement du système judiciaire haïtien dans sa globalité et comment la moblisation populaire et internationale (notamment grâce au film « L'Agronome ») font toujours vivre l'enquête deux ans après la mort de Jean.
