FOLLOW-UP REPORT #2
Reference is made to the case of the death of
a local man in the Port-au-Prince hospital
reported at 21 .00 hrs. At
22:30 hours the joint UN and Haitian
police team arrived
at the victim's residence and made
contact with Ms. Mia Teto, the victim's girlfriend. HNP Inspector King obtained a written statement
from her. She seemed to be the primary and the only witness at that moment.
Ms. Teto, a black female Haitian, 25 years old, stated that earlier
that day. At 20.00 hours she heard a knock on the
door of the residence where she lived with her boyfriend
Raoul Cocote, and then Ms. Teto proceeded to open the door. Once the door was opened,
two subjects forced their way into the residence. The two subjects pushed her toward the living
room where Raoul Cocote was
sitting. The first subject was described as approximately 75 cm tall, wearing
blue jeans, a red shirt, military
boots and a black
mask. The second culprit was approximately IO cm taller wearing black pants, a blue shirt, and a white mask. When in the room, she stumbled
over a bookshelf and fell to the floor. The visitors had an argument
with the victim and demanded to know where he hid his money. When Raoul refused to tell
them where he kept his money, the shorter subject in the black mask proceeded to strike
the victim with his hands.
Raoul fell on the
floor and the same man continued beating
him, repeatedly asking him for some hidden money. Meanwhile, the second subject wearing
the white mask was
searching for the room. After 10-15 minutes
of extensive searching, the second man failed to find any valuable things,
which got him upset. He produced a knife and stabbed the victim
two times in his chest, leaving
the knife in his body.
Mia Teto was approximately three
meters away and observed
the attack. After they stopped attacking
Raoul, the first
subject threatened that if
she called the police, they would
return and kill her. Then both subjects
ran out of residence. She observed the knife protruding from her boyfriend's chest, and at about 20.15 hours she called the Port au Prince Hospital, which dispatched an ambulance
that arrived in about 15-20 minutes and took Raoul Cocote to the
Hospital.
