From: Beaubrun Exumene To: President and members of the Security Council of the UN Object: Compensation for all cholera victims Date: November 29, 2015 CC: Ban Ki-moon, UN Secretary-General CC: Evans Paul, Prime Minister of Haiti Mr. President, I salute you in the name of God in Heaven. My name is Beaubrun Exumene. I live in Octavan, and my identity card number is: 05-09-99-1935-08-00001. I am one of the victims of the cholera epidemic brought to the country by MINUSTHA. When my symptoms started, I first felt pain near my heart, and then I started with vomiting, and after that came the diarrhea. Luckily, my child had prepared me plenty of oral serum, and when I finally got to the hospital, the doctors took over with IV Hydration. It’s by the grace of God that I am still here. I was nearer to death than life because of that disease given to me by MINUSTHA…

Mr. President,

I am happy to be writing you this letter and would like to take this opportunity to

greet you. My name is Thomas Hector. I am 23 years old and I live in Otovan. My

identification number is 05-09-92-1992-03-001872.

I am one of those who caught cholera. This illness caused me to vomit intensely

and gave me diarrhea. My mother gave me a lot of oral serum until I arrived at the

hospital in Verrettes. When I arrived, the doctor gave me an IV of serum. Once the

sickness had left me, I got a sharp pain in my stomach that has not gone away. For

this reason I am asking that the United Nations take responsibility for what has

happened to me, a victim of cholera.

Name: Politès Rozye

Zone: Briza


My name is Politès. I caught cholera from untreated drinking water because my

family does not have enough money to buy treated water. When I caught the

sickness, I lost control of my body. I could not stop vomiting or having diarrhea,

which made me very dehydrated, and I wished I were dead. Only after days of oral

and intravenous serum did I make a recovery. For this reason we are demanding

that the United Nations pay us damages for its actions because we never used to

have this disease.

Name: Orelyen Pierre

Zone: Briza



My name is Orelyen Pierre. I am a victim of cholera. The sickness first affected me

while I was in the field. When it struck, I stopped being able to walk. I began to

vomit and have diarrhea uncontrollably. I lost the ability to speak. They brought

me to a health center where I spent three days taking oral and intravenous serum.

Afterwards they transferred me to a hospital where I spent seven days.

To pay for all of this, I had to sell two goats and one cow. And as if that wasn’t

enough, I developed hemorrhoids, which means I am still paying money to treat

my illness. For these reasons, I demand that the United Nations Security Council

with the Martelly-Paul government help me and all cholera victims in Haiti find

justice and compensation.

Name: Gezitha Louis

Zone: Briza



I, Gezitha Louis, am a severe victim of cholera. When I got sick, I lost everything I

possessed because there was no one to look after my affairs while I was

recovering. Everything I had was stolen.

I succumbed to cholera in the fields, and when they brought me to the hospital,

they had to give me 25 intravenous serum doses and 80 oral serum doses. Since

then, I continue to be afflicted with other health problems. I vomited so heavily

during my cholera that my stomach opened.

delivery thanks to much serum and medication that allowed me to recover.

Subject: Request for reparations and justice

Mr. President, I see that today is a grand day for me, as I write you concerning the illness

of cholera that ravaged me. My name is Zando Vilné, I live in Makak and my

identification number is as follows: 05-09-99-1968-10-00009. When the illness befell me,

it made my head spin, I was not well at all, but my wife prepared many types of serum

[medication] for me to be taken orally. And when I arrived at the hospital in Mirebalais, it

was at this time that the doctor gave me three serums for me to take when I left the

hospital. It was my wife who borrowed a motorcycle to take me to the hospital. The

motorcycle chauffeur made my wife pay $250 gourdes. Moreover, it was MINUSTAH

that gave me this cholera illness.

I am requesting recompense for me and especially for all of the victims of cholera.

Signed,

identification number is as follows: 05-09-99-1979-08-00077. I am a person who

I didn’t know whether I was in the air or on the floor. But thanks to God, I am still here.

Perhaps it was MINUSTAH that gave me this illness. It is for this reason that I am

requesting justice and reparations for all of the victims.

Re: Demand for Damages for the Victims of Cholera

I am Elcius Fanckel. I remain with the Health Department for the 3rd Section of the

Commune of Saut d’Eau, identified by number 06-06-99-1985-08-0040, certified

as a victim of cholera in the month of October 2011.

I went to get help in the Saut d’Eau hospital. I was very sick. I was suffering great

pain, breakdown on top of breakdown of my systems. I had no physical energy.

And all of this forced me to spend everything. And now I am asking for justice for

the suffering I endured and for damages for these gigantic abuses which the UN

soldiers brought. I need this to get into a better physical state and good health.

And so I sign with my fingerprint.

Re: Demand for Justice and Compensation for the Victims of Cholera

Excellencies,

I greet you in the name of my country and I congratulate you for the work that you

have done and that you will continue to do more always to help the victims of

cholera to obtain justice and compensation, in accordance with the laws of my

country and international human rights law.

I am Darius Ydanis. I am 48 years old. I live in the Bauri neighborhood of the

first Section of Rikano in the commune of Saut d’Eau.

I had a relative named Vaicilet Darius. He had cholera and died in June 2012. I

myself took him to the health center in Saut d’Eau for the treatment of cholera

while he suffered greatly. He had great stomach pains, vomiting, diarrhea, and

despite the support I gave him, he died. He left 8 children to live in the street and

they are enduring great misery. They cannot go to school.

I am asking you to help me so that they can find justice, welfare, and

compensation. Thank you for your understanding and attention. May God bless

you in abundance.

Darius Ydanis
