PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (defend.ht/Radio Kiskeya) - Refraining from comment on the content of these large documents that could put the Senate inquiry on new tracks, Senator Steven Benoit (Ouest/Alternative) also revealed that a minister would have resigned a U.S. citizen and announced that a match been forwarded to the Head of State asking him to give investigators his last passport (2007-2012) and the copy of his U.S. residency card; Congressman Arnel Belizaire (Delmas/Independent), who claims to have discovered in the United States that would Martelly a triple identity, search the impeachment of the Head of State.

Steven Benoit said Tuesday that the Deputy Arnel Belizaire, freshly returned from the United States, had returned to the Senate Committee of Inquiry into the nationality of senior management a lot of impressive documents over a thousand pages on ministers and secretaries of state, but especially President Michel Martelly whose alleged dual foreign citizenship remains at the center of investigation and concern different segments of public opinion.

The representative of the district of Delmas / Tabarre, Belizaire, whose name had hit the headlines during his unlawful arrest in October last, had said before his return to a parliamentary commission that he would seek the impeachment the head of state who would have used three identities in the United States where he lived.

Without revealing the contents of individual dossiers submitted to the Commissioners, Senator Benoit has implicitly shown that they could be of some interest.
