A taxi operator who was charged in connection with the mob killing of a beloved Manchester resident, was last week freed of murder relative to the incident.

Orlando Powell appeared in the Manchester Parish Court to learn whether there was enough evidence for him to stand trial in the Circuit Court for the murder of 61-year-old Chieftin Campbell.

Following submissions by the prosecution and the defence, Parish Judge Monique Harrison ruled that a prima facie case had not been made against the defendant and, as such, the matter would not be committed to the High Court.

In criminal law, the term prima facie is used to denote that upon initial examination, a legal claim has sufficient evidence to proceed to trial.

Consequently, after the ruling by the judge, Powell was freed of the murder charge.

However, the case file has been sent to the Coroner’s Court, where an inquest will be held, commencing on February 2, 2023.

During those proceedings, a coroner and/or jury will sit to establish the type of death that was involved in the case, such as a natural death or murder. If any culpability is shown to have contributed to the individual’s death, a criminal prosecution can arise from the conclusion of the inquest.

It was alleged that on May 6, Campbell was beaten by a group of persons, including Powell, who had mistaken the senior citizen for a thief in Mandeville.

Campbell, a resident of Victoria Town in Manchester, was transported to the hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.

The police launched a probe and it was determined that Campbell was, in fact, not a thief, but a well-respected member of the Victoria Town community.

Qatar opens the World Cup with a message of inclusion Loop Jamaica

Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman extended one yellow-gloved hand to a FIFA World Cup ambassador suffering from a rare spinal disorder in an image meant to represent inclusion in a country facing international criticism over its human rights record.

It wasn’t the biggest moment of Sunday’s seven-act World Cup opening ceremony ahead of the match between host country Qatar and Ecuador. The largest cheers were reserved for the Mideast and African leaders watching from their luxury suites in Bedouin-tent inspired Al Bayt Stadium.

In fact, it was Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani who drew a thunderous applause in a short speech delivered in Arabic from the suite. He was seated between FIFA president Gianni Infantino and his father, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, who secured the World Cup for the tiny gulf nation 12 years ago.

“How beautiful it is for people to put aside what divides them in order to celebrate their diversity and what brings them together at the same time,” Sheikh Tamim said, his words translated into English on a video screen inside the stadium.

“I wish all the participating teams a magnificent football performance, high sportsmanship, and a time full of joy, excitement and delight for you all,” he continued. “And let there be days that are inspiring with goodness and hope.”

He then said, “I welcome you and good luck to all,” in his only words spoken in English.

Sheikh Hamad, viewed as the modernizer of Qatar during his 18 years as ruler, further delighted the crowd by autographing an official World Cup shirt handed to him by his son. He then held the shirt up to the crowd.

Qatar, home to 3 million people, most of them migrant workers, has spent more than $200 billion on preparation for the World Cup. Seven new stadiums were built, including the 60,000-seat Al Bayt Stadium north of Doha.

The opening ceremony was meant to introduce Qatar to the world through its culture with a theme of “bridging distances.” Creative director Ahmad Al Baker wanted the ceremony to signify “a gathering for all mankind, an invitation to come together as one, bridging all differences with humanity, respect and inclusion.”

It hit the mark when Sheikh Tamim was joined in the stadium suite by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi, two leaders who had boycotted Qatar for years. Not present were the leaders of Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates, the two other nations involved in the boycott.

There were no major Western leaders in attendance, as Qatar is under intense scrutiny for its treatment of the migrant workers who prepped the nation for the World Cup, as well as the LGBTQ community. Gay and lesbian sex is criminalized in Qatar.

But among those who did attend the opening match were U.N. Secretary-General Ant?nio Guterres, Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, Senegalese President Macky Sall, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Rwandan President Paul Kagame.

Kuwait’s crown prince came, along with the director-general of the World Health Organization and Djibouti’s president. Also present was Jordan’s King Abdullah II.

They listened as BTS’ Jung Kook, while Qatari singer and producer Fahad Al Kubaisi debuted the single “Dreamers,” produced specifically for the World Cup.

Then came remarks from Infantino, who spoke in Arabic, Spanish and finally English to officially open the tournament.

“Dear friends, welcome, welcome, to the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022,” Infantino said in English. “Welcome to celebrate football because football unites the world. And now let’s welcome the teams and let the show begin.”

As “The Business” by Tiesto blasted over the speakers, Qatar and Ecuador took to the field and the World Cup officially began.

Historic loss and damage response fund to assist and support developing countries is finally established at UN climate summit.

Closing of COP27, Sharm El Sheikh, November, 2022

STATEMENT FROM AOSIS CHAIR, THE HONOURABLE MINISTER MOLWYN JOSEPH, ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA

AOSIS promised the world we would not leave Sharm El Sheikh without achieving the establishment of a loss and damage response fund.

A mission thirty years in the making has been accomplished.

We have literally exhausted all of our efforts here at COP27 to bring home the climate action commitments our vulnerable people desperately need.

Our Ministers and negotiators have endured sleepless nights and endless days in an intense series of negotiations, determined to secure the establishment of a loss and damage response fund, keep 1.5 alive, and advance ambition on critical mitigation and adaptation plans.

But after the pain comes the progress.

Today, the international community has restored global faith in this critical process that is dedicated to ensuring no one is left behind.

The agreements made at COP27 are a win for our entire world. We have shown those who have felt neglected that we hear you, we see you, and we are giving you the respect and care you deserve.

Now we must solidify our ties across territories. We must work even harder to hold firm to the 1.5C warming limit, to operationalize the loss and damage fund, and continue to create a world that is safe, fair, and equitable for all.

About AOSIS:

Since 1990, AOSIS has represented the interests of the 39 small island and low-lying coastal developing states in international climate change, sustainable development negotiations and processes.

As a voice for the vulnerable, its mandate is more than amplifying marginalised voices as it also advocates for these countries’ interests.

In terms of size, AOSIS closely resembles the countries it represents on the global stage, but often punches far above its weight, negotiating historic global commitments to cut greenhouse gas emissions, among other achievements.

Trump à nouveau confronté au puissant attrait de Twitter

Résistera-t-il, en pleine campagne pour 2024, à l’attrait de cette gigantesque caisse de résonance qu’est Twitter, à ce réseau avec lequel il est, au fond, si intimement lié? Donald Trump, dont le compte a été rétabli par Elon Musk…

Résistera-t-il, en pleine campagne pour 2024, à l’attrait de cette gigantesque caisse de résonance qu’est Twitter, à ce réseau avec lequel il est, au fond, si intimement lié? Donald Trump, dont le compte a été rétabli par Elon Musk, dit pour l’instant préférer son réseau Truth Social.

Au terme d’un sondage qui a vu se dégager une majorité en faveur du rétablissement du compte de l’ancien président républicain – 51,8% sur quelque 15 millions de votes – le nouveau patron de Twitter, qui se présente en défenseur de la liberté d’expression, est passé à l’acte samedi.

Tous les yeux sont rivés depuis sur le compte @realDonaldTrump, à l’affût de la moindre activité. Ce compte attribué au “45ème président des Etats-Unis d’Amérique” est doté de la désormais fameuse vignette sur fond bleu censée garantir qu’il a été vérifié. 

Il n’affichait pas de nouvelle publication, du moins dimanche autour de 16h00 GMT. Le dernier message date du 8 janvier 2021, le milliardaire y fait savoir qu’il n’ira pas à la cérémonie d’investiture du président Joe Biden, dont il ne reconnaît pas l’élection. 

Le même jour, Twitter avait fermé de manière permanente le compte de l’ancien président, comptant alors 88,8 millions d’abonnés, face au “risque de nouvelles incitations à la violence”. 

La plate-forme l’avait déjà suspendu le 6 janvier, après l’envahissement du Capitole par ses partisans.

Fluctuations

On observait dimanche des fluctuations importantes dans le nombre d’abonnées, qui a fortement augmenté jusqu’à atteindre 83 millions vers 15h30 GMT, tandis que le nombre de comptes suivis est passé de zéro à 49. 

Mais impossible de savoir ce que veut dire cette augmentation du nombre d’abonnés, impossible aussi de savoir si quelqu’un agit réellement sur le compte: Twitter, en pleines convulsions depuis son acquisition fracassante par Elon Musk, n’a plus de service de communication.

Par ailleurs le compte attribué à l’ancien président renvoie désormais vers un site proposant de contribuer financièrement à la campagne tout juste lancée par Donald Trump pour 2024. 

Impossible là aussi de savoir comment ce lien a été mis en place, et par qui.

Samedi, alors que le sondage sur Twitter était toujours en cours – et qu’une majorité se dégageait déjà en faveur de son retour – Donald Trump avait appelé sur Truth Social ses partisans à voter en sa faveur. 

Mais il avait aussi écrit: “Nous n’allons nulle part. Truth Social est spécial”

Candidature

Donald Trump, qui avait comme personne su utiliser Twitter pendant sa présidence pour dicter l’agenda médiatique, en bombardant la plate-forme de déclarations virulentes et d’annonces choc du matin au soir, pourra-t-il résister au gazouillis de l’oiseau bleu?

Surtout après une annonce de candidature qui n’a pas, loin de là, créé l’élan escompté. 

Dimanche, son compte Twitter comptait donc quelque 83 millions d’abonnés vers 15h30 GMT – impossible de savoir combien sont des humains et combien des “bots”, des comptes automatisés – contre 4,48 millions sur Truth Social.

L’ancien président s’est lancé dans la course juste après les élections de mi-mandat, qui n’ont pas tourné pour les républicains à la “vague” escomptée, et qui ont conduit nombre de conservateurs à prendre leurs distances avec Donald Trump.

Parmi eux l’ancien vice-président Mike Pence, considéré comme un concurrent potentiel pour l’investiture républicaine, a dit dimanche sur CBS qu’il y “aura de meilleurs choix” que l’ancien président. Il a appelé de ses voeux une candidature conservatrice susceptible “d’unifier” le pays, porteuse de “respect et de courtoisie.”

Dans une étude publiée le 18 novembre, l’institut de recherches Pew Research Center conclut que 27% des Américains disent avoir entendu parler de Truth Social, mais que seulement 2% l’utilisent pour s’informer – contre 14% pour Twitter et 31% pour Facebook, dont Donald Trump est à l’heure actuelle écarté.

Les chercheurs expliquent aussi que sur 200 comptes de Truth Social particulièrement en vue, 49% expriment soit une orientation politique de droite soit un soutien à Donald Trump. En clair, une chambre d’écho pour des partisans déjà acquis aux idées de l’ancien président.

Avant Michel Martelly, Laurent Lamothe et Jean Henry C?ant, les USA et le Canada avaient cibl? d’autres Ha?tiens

Alors qu’on annonce de sources diplomatiques que la liste des sanctionn?s va s’allonger dans les jours qui viennent et que les sanctions auront une port?e mondiale, dimanche 20 novembre 2022, le Canada a annonc? des sanctions contre l’ancien pr?sident Michel Martelly et les anciens premiers ministres Laurent Lamothe et Jean Henry C?ant. Cela fait des semaines que des noms de sanctionn?es tombent.

D’abord, il y a eu ceux dont les visas am?ricains ont ?t? annul?s. Aucun nom n’avait officiellement circul? jusqu’? ce que le premier ministre Ariel Henry ait ?t? oblig? de remplacer deux ministres de son gouvernement qui ont ?t? vis?s, selon des sources concordantes.

Bien avant eux, il y a plusieurs personnalit?s publiques ou anciens responsables qui ont vu leur visa am?ricain r?voqu?.

Samedi 19 novembre 2022, ce sont les anciens et actuels parlementaires Gary Bodeau, ancien pr?sident de la Chambre des d?put?s, le s?nateur en fonction Rony C?lestin et l’ancien s?nateur Herv? Fourcand qui ont ?t? sanctionn?s par le Canada

Selon un communiqu? d’Affaires mondiales Canada, ces sanctions sont impos?es <>.

<>, peut-on lire dans le communiqu?.

Lundi 14 novembre, le Canada a int?gr? dans le droit canadien, en vertu de la Loi sur les Nations Unies, une r?cente r?solution du Conseil de s?curit? des Nations Unies (CSNU) pr?voyant des sanctions contre des personnes en Ha?ti.

C’est la ministre des Affaires ?trang?res M?lanie Joly qui en avait fait l’annonce. <>, a d?clar? M?lanie Joly, ministre des Affaires ?trang?res du Canada.

<>, peut-on lire dans un communiqu? publi? par Affaires mondiales Canada ce lundi.

<>, poursuit le communiqu?.

Le 4 novembre, les Etats-Unis et le Canada avaient impos? des sanctions contre le pr?sident du S?nat Joseph Lambert et l’ancien s?nateur Youri Latortue

Affaires mondiales Canada a publi? vendredi 4 novembre l’annonce de sanctions contre des membres de l’?lite politique ha?tienne. L’actuel pr?sident du S?nat Joseph Lambert, et l’ancien s?nateur Youri Latortue, sont les deux personnalit?s vis?es par ces sanctions.

Le m?me vendredi 4 novembre, the “Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC)” du d?partement am?ricain du tr?sor a ?galement annonc? avoir d?sign? “les ressortissants ha?tiens Joseph Lambert (Lambert) et Youri Latortue (Latortue) conform?ment au d?cret 14059 du 15 d?cembre 2021, traitant des sanctions aux ?trangers impliqu?s dans le trafic mondial de drogues illicites.

“L’OFAC a d?sign? Lambert et Latortue pour s’?tre livr?s, ou avoir tent? de se livrer, ? des activit?s ou transactions qui ont mat?riellement contribu?, ou pr?sentent un risque significatif de contribution mat?rielle, ? la prolif?ration internationale de drogues illicites ou de leurs moyens de production. Lambert est le pr?sident en exercice du S?nat ha?tien et a occup? des postes politiques en Ha?ti pendant 20 ans. Latortue est un ancien s?nateur ha?tien et un politicien de longue date”, peut-on lire dans le communiqu? de l’instance am?ricaine.

“Joseph Lambert et Youri Latortue ont abus? de leurs fonctions officielles pour mener des trafics de drogue et ont collabor? avec des r?seaux criminels et de gangs pour saper l’?tat de droit en Ha?ti”, a d?clar? le sous-secr?taire au Tr?sor pour le terrorisme et le renseignement financier Brian E. Nelson.

“Les ?tats-Unis et nos partenaires internationaux continueront de prendre des mesures contre ceux qui facilitent le trafic de drogue, permettent la corruption et cherchent ? profiter de l’instabilit? en Ha?ti.”, a poursuivi cet officiel am?ricain.

Toujours selon le communiqu? du d?partement am?ricain du tr?sor, l’histoire de Lambert avec le trafic de drogue couvre deux d?cennies. “Pendant ce temps, Lambert a utilis? sa position pour diriger et faciliter le trafic de coca?ne de la Colombie vers Ha?ti et pour faciliter l’impunit? en Ha?ti pour d’autres trafiquants de stup?fiants. Lambert a ?galement ordonn? ? d’autres de se livrer ? la violence en son nom. Son trafic de drogue, ses tactiques de corruption et son m?pris continu de l’?tat de droit ont contribu? ? la d?stabilisation continue d’Ha?ti”, peut-on lire.

“Comme Lambert, Latortue a ?galement ?t? longtemps impliqu? dans des activit?s de trafic de drogue. Latortue s’est engag? dans le trafic de coca?ne de la Colombie vers Ha?ti et a ordonn? ? d’autres de se livrer ? la violence en son nom. L’OFAC a coordonn? ?troitement avec la Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) sur cette d?signation”, pr?cise le communiqu?.

Le communiqu? du Tr?sor am?ricain a ?galement averti que “ceux qui s’engagent dans certaines transactions avec les personnes d?sign?es aujourd’hui peuvent eux-m?mes s’exposer ? des sanctions ou faire l’objet d’une action en justice”. ” De plus, ? moins qu’une exception ne s’applique, toute institution financi?re ?trang?re qui facilite sciemment une transaction importante ou fournit des services financiers importants aux personnes d?sign?es aujourd’hui pourrait faire l’objet de sanctions am?ricaines. Le pouvoir et l’int?grit? des sanctions de l’OFAC d?coulent non seulement de la capacit? de l’OFAC ? d?signer et ? ajouter des personnes ? la liste des ressortissants sp?cialement d?sign?s et des personnes bloqu?es (liste SDN), mais aussi de sa volont? de supprimer des personnes de la liste SDN conform?ment ? la loi. Le but ultime des sanctions n’est pas de punir, mais de provoquer un changement positif de comportement”, pr?cise le communiqu?.

Les Etats-Unis ont des dossiers tr?s complets sur Joseph Lambert et Youri Latortue, avait d?clar? le charg? d’affaires ?ric Stromayer lors de son passage ? la matinale de Magik 9, mardi 9 novembre.

Cop whose infant died in his car to face committal hearing next year Loop Jamaica

A policeman who has been charged in relation to the death of his 18-month-old daughter after he reportedly locked her inside his car for hours, is to learn early next year whether the case will be sent to the Circuit Court for trial.

Detective Sergeant Sheldon Dobson, who is charged with manslaughter, appeared in the St Elizabeth Parish Court on Thursday.

The prosecution made full disclosure of its case files to the defence prior to Senior Parish Judge Broderick Smith setting the matter for committal hearing on January 24, 2023.

During that hearing, the judge is to determine whether there is enough evidence for the matter to be tried in the Circuit Court.

Dobson’s bail was extended until that time.

Shaleah Dobson died two days after she was left in her father’s car for several hours.

Following a ruling by the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP), Dobson was charged in connection with the January 17, 2022 incident in which he left his daughter inside the car while at work in Black River in the parish.

It was reported that the detective sergeant was to take the child to a day care centre, due to the child’s grandmother being unwell.

However, he forgot to drop off the child, and went straight to work.

The child was found unconscious in her father’s vehicle hours later.

She was rushed to hospital, but died two days later.
