PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti, CMC – Former president Jean Claude “Baby Doc” Duvalier has been hospitalised, but his lawyer Reynold Georges has declined to name the medical institution where his client is receiving treatment.
Georges said that Duvalier, 61, was taken to hospital after he testified last week on human rights abuses and embezzlement associated with his 15-year rule.
His hospitalisation is the second occasion that Duvalier has sought medical treatment. In 2011, he checked into a hospital for unspecified chest pains.
