Haiti: "inhumane conditions" in jail says Rights Group

Human rights group, RNDDH, is concerned that police reliance on makeshift prisons amid insecurity and a crippled judicial system, makes for “inhumane, degrading conditions in overcrowded cells”.
The group reported after visiting six police stations in Haiti’s Ouest Department. They recommend urging immediate action from the judicial system, which has struggled for years and is facing strikes by staff calling for better work conditions.
