HAITI: Cité Soleil gangs call off disarmament
The gangs of Cité Soleil called off the ceremony scheduled for 21 August
at which they had planned to surrender their weapons [WR-06-33]. A spokesman for
the gangs said they had suspended this move because Minustah, the UN
stabilisation force, had continued to mount attacks on the gangs as they
prepared to disarm.
