The Police and Barbecue Play Hide-and-Seek

Following the operation conducted by the task force on Saturday, March 1, 2025, in lower Delmas, reports suggested that the spokesperson for the criminal organization « Viv Ansanm » had been seriously injured. Others reported his possible death. These reports were later rejected, a few hours later, by the individual himself through a publication.

In this 2-minute and 20-second video, the gang leader, wearing jeans and a black T-shirt, appeared in good health. « Here I am, Haitian people… 7:16 PM, I am well and alive, » he affirmed.

Taunting law enforcement, like a game of cat and mouse, Barbecue announced an upcoming response. « Don't forget that force must be proportional. You showed the monkey how to attack. I hope there won't be any complaints afterward, » Barbecue said with a smile.

« You used an explosive drone to try and assassinate me; I will do the same to attack anyone, » Barbecue warned.

The weekend operation was carried out by several units of the Haitian National Police following the creation of a Task Force by the CPT and the Prime Minister's Office. Alix Didier Fils Aimé had stated on his X account that armed bandits had been killed, without providing further evidence.
