HAITI-POLITICS-DUVALIER
UN mission in Haiti places January 17 2011 security guards in front of a hotal where former Hatit dictator Jean-Claude Duvalier holes in, Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Former Haiti dictator Jean-Claude Duvalier or Baby Doc return back to Haiti after 25 years of exil in France. Supporters of former Haitian dictator Jean-Claude Duvalier wait at the hotel gate where he holes up January 17, 2011 in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Former Haiti dictator Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier holed up January 17, 2011 in a Port-au-Prince hotel, receiving a string of confidantes as speculation swirled about his unexpected return. Appearing more frail than his 59 years would suggest, Duvalier arrived back late January 16, 2011, kissing the tarmac as he stepped onto home soil for the first time since being driven from power by a popular uprising 25 years ago. His return came against the backdrop of great uncertainty in Haiti following disputed presidential elections that have created a political vacuum and spawned deadly riots between rival factions. Human rights groups called for Duvalier to face trial, but the justice system is in tatters after last year's devastating earthquake and most Haitians are too young to remember his rapacious 1971-1986 rule. .
