Haitian Bishops blame army in election violence in Port au Prince
Catholic bishops in Haiti accuse the army of involvement in the killings that ruined the free election and urge citizens to prevent the junta from setting its own rules. Opposition groups call a general strike to oust the junta amid ongoing unrest after Duvalier fled on February 7, 1986. In Port au Prince crowds terrorized by gunmen and machete-wielding gangs killed and wounded voters, while the civilian Electoral Council canceled the vote. The Senate condemned the violence and urged accountability for the breakdown of democracy.
