Depuis l'été de 2018, Haïti vit sous l'ombre menaçante des gangs armés. Certains se distinguent par leur brutalité envers le peuple. Véritables mercenaires, ils sont prêts à commettre des exactions graves. Leur présence instaure une atmosphère de peur palpable dans tout le pays. La population se trouve souvent à la merci de ces bandits, notamment en raison de leurs motivations politiques. Ce livre examine l'augmentation significative des enlèvements en Haïti, un phénomène qui soulève une urgence et une inquiétude majeures à travers le pays. Ce titre vise à fournir une analyse détaillée de la situation sécuritaire du pays. En outre, il propose des solutions viables pour faire face à cette crise. À Port-au-Prince, les efforts de la police nationale d'Haïti (PNH) pour renforcer la sécurité sont visibles, avec des postes de police établis dans des zones stratégiques. Toutefois, l'efficacité de ces mesures est parfois mise en doute. Le livre aborde la nécessité pour la PNH d'adopter des méthodes plus sophistiquées pour lutter contre l'insécurité et les enlèvements. Dans ce contexte difficile, une lueur d'espoir subsiste pour Haïti. Malgré les défis de l'instabilité politique et du développement, le pays a la capacité de surmonter ces épreuves. Ce livre est un appel à l'action. Il souligne l'importance de travailler ensemble pour établir un climat de paix et d'ordre en Haïti.
