Gangs attack power substation in Haiti

Port-au-Prince, Aug 16 (Prensa Latina) Armed groups attacked the substation of the Haitian Electricity Company (EDH), located in Carrefour-Feuilles, and left the infrastructure inefficient, the state institution denounced in a press release on Wednesday.

According to the communiqué, the assailants made the station dysfunctional and, as a consequence, a large part of the metropolitan area of the capital has no electricity.

The company called on authorities to identify and punish those involved, which penalized subscribers and the population in general, and reaffirmed its will to resume service as soon as possible.

For several weeks now, the Gran Ravine gangs have been trying to take control of Savane Pistache, southwest of the capital, and move their operations there. jg/abo/mgt/ane
