(Worthy News) – Haitian authorities said Sunday they had foiled an attempt to kill President Jovenel Moise and overthrow the government, as a dispute rages over when his term ends.
The plot was an “attempted coup d’etat,” according to Justice Minister Rockefeller Vincent, with authorities saying at least 23 people have been arrested, including a top judge and an official from the national police.
“I thank my head of security at the palace. The goal of these people was to make an attempt on my life,” Moise said. “That plan was aborted.” [ Source: VOA (Read More…) ]
