"Me. Bed-Ford CLAUDE

Government Commissioner, a..i

Near the Court of First Instance of Port-au-Prince

Mr. Commissioner,

I have the honor to inform you, following the invitation made to me by the Public Prosecutor's Office of Port au Prince, that I am currently under a precautionary measure ordered by the General Inspectorate of Haitian National Police and that therefore, I am not available to comply with the requisition of the Public Prosecutor's Office.

While being disposed to answer it once this precautionary measure has been exhausted, I respectfully wish to request a suspension from your Public Prosecutor's Office for such a purpose as of right.

I take this opportunity to renew to you, Commissioner, the expression of my respectful greetings.

Dimitri HERARD"
