Port au Prince Violence Ties to Aristide Backers
Jasmine Pierre and husband Wilman St Juste, both Aristide supporters, were assaulted by four soldiers and two civilian auxiliaries in Port au Prince after Aristide's ouster. Pierre was beaten, their child present, and her husband disappeared. Rights groups warn such incidents use public safety as a weapon against Lavalas supporters.
