he National Coalition for Haitian Rights (NCHR) extends its most sincere
condolences to the spouse, children and colleagues of Gerard
Pierre-Charles,
leader of the Organisation du Peuple en Lutte (OPL). Mr. Pierre-Charles
had
gone to Cuba for medical care. While there he was felled by a heart
attack.
It&#8217;s unfortunate that Mr. Pierre-Charles did not have the joy of
living
in a democratic Haiti where mutual respect and human rights would lead to
the
establishment of modern institutions, able to offer routine as well as
emergency care to her sons and daughters
