Five alleged major arms traffickers arrested by law enforcement

By HC Network, March 21, 2025

The Haitian National Police (PNH) announced the arrest of five individuals involved in a vast arms trafficking network. The suspects include Sénat Guito, Mackenson Pierre, and Francesca Charles, arrested for their alleged participation in arms trafficking.

This case follows the seizure of a shipment of weapons destined for Haiti on March 4, 2025. Dominican authorities intercepted the weapons before they arrived in Haiti, preventing their distribution.

Law enforcement is continuing its investigation to identify additional accomplices and dismantle the entire network. This arrest marks a significant step forward in the fight against arms trafficking in Haiti.
