ANNEX In Annex I to Decision (CFSP) 2022/2319, entry 1 is replaced by the following: ‘1. Jimmy CHERIZIER (a.k.a. “Barbeque”) has engaged in acts that threaten the peace, security, and stability of Haiti and has planned, directed or committed acts that constitute serious human rights abuses. Jimmy Cherizier is one of Haiti’s most influential gang leaders and leads an alliance of Haitian gangs known as the “G9 Family and Allies”. Function: Former Police Officer DOB: 30 March 1977 POB: Port-au-Prince, Haiti Nationality: Haitian National identification no : 001-843-989-7 (NIF – Haiti) Address: 16, Imp Manius, Delmas 40 B, Port-au-Prince, Haiti Date of UN designation : 21 October 2022 Additional information from the narrative summary of reasons for listing provided by the Sanctions Committee: While serving as an officer in the Haitian National Police (HNP), Cherizier planned and participated in the November 2018 deadly attack against civilians in a Port-au-Prince neighbourhood known as La Saline. During this attack, at least 71 people were killed, over 400 houses were destroyed and at least seven women were raped by armed gangs. Throughout 2018 and 2019, Cherizier led armed groups in coordinated, brutal attacks in Port-au-Prince neighbourhoods. In May 2020, Cherizier led armed gangs in a five-day attack in multiple Port-au-Prince neighbourhoods in which civilians were killed and houses were set on fire. As of 11 October 2022, Cherizier and his “G9 Family and Allies” gang confederation have been actively blocking the free movement of fuel from the Varreux fuel terminal – the largest in Haiti. His actions have directly contributed to the economic paralysis and humanitarian crisis in Haiti.’.
