AHP/Radio Solidarite founder/director Venel Remarais returned safely to Haiti today at 12:30 PM. He cut short his travel in Florida due to the summons brought to his office (but not delivered) on July 27 stating that he is to appear before an investigating judge on Monday August 1st to discuss criminal accusations against him.

By the way, on his way home from the airport, Venel heard messages of support from listeners to Radio Solidarite and called in to congratulate a Haitian group on the release of their new CD that was just played over the air and to reassure them that he was in Haiti and ready to defend the station and his journalists. We will continue to provide updates on this situation and expect to be sending you the AHP News in English again before the end of the weekend. Thanks for your support!

For The Friends of AHP
