Talk about a people with a short memory. Baby Doc makes former President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali of Tunisia look downright respectful and honest. Baby Doc not only pilfered the treasury of Haiti, but he was responsible for more deaths than the previous half dozen leaders combined. He is a very bad man and for some Haitians to be dreaming of his return shows a very disturbing trend. On the upside - he is about 60 years old and given the volatility in Haiti, he could be toppled.
Ousted president Duvalier returning to Haiti: diplomat
Jan 16, 2011
Haitian former president Jean-Claude Duvalier, ousted from power by a popular revolt in the 1980s, is heading back to Haiti where he is expected to arrive later Sunday, a diplomatic source in Paris said.
"He is on board an Air France flight" going to Port-au-Prince, the diplomat who requested anonymity told AFP.
The plane is scheduled to land in the Haitian capital around 5:30 pm (2230 GMT).
The 59-year-old ex-dictator, known as "Baby Doc", has been living in exile in France for nearly 25 years.
