dc.description.abstract | An agreement between President Jean-Bertrand Aristide and lawmakers from Port-au-Prince granting a general amnesty to those who staged a coup in Haiti last September was reached at an OAS meeting. Secondly, the Supreme Court overruled legal submissions by Haitian advocates in favour of the US Government completing forcible repatriation of Haitian refugees. Thirdly, fears are voiced over renewed gang clashes after Lester Lloyd Coke, alias Jim Brown, was found burnt to death in his prison cell. Fourthly, the European Commission continues to pledge support for Caribbean and African banana producers stating that they will not lose any advantages so far gained in trade agreements. Lastly, concern is expressed for the recovery of Brian Lara, West Indian batsman, from a toe injury three days before World Cup clash with England. | en_US |
