HAITIAN KREYOL:

Amnisti Entènasyonal di yo depòte an Ayiti, Ayisyen ak Dominiken

Nan vag depòtasyon ki sot pase, otorite Dominikèn te depòte ni Ayisyen ni Dominiken an Ayiti. Dapre Amnisti Entènasyonal , Repiblik Dominikèn te mete deyò plis pase 100,000i; anpil nan depòtasyon sa yo te fet ilegalman. Ajans la te kapab verifye plis ke 1,600 moun sa yo ki te depòte an Ayiti kòm moun ki gin dwa nasyonalite Dominikèn .

Anplis de sa, Amnisti Entènasyonal rapòte ke anpil nan depòtasyon yo te fet san yo pa kite dosye . Enfòmasyon sanble sigjere ke kèk nan moun sa yo te arete nan lari epi yo te pote yo tou dwat nan fwontyè si yo pa te kapab pwodwi dokiman idantifikasyon imedyatman. Dominikèn pa te ofri yo sèvis legal.
