9 in Haiti Accused in Journalist Case PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti - A judge on Friday concluded the investigation into one of Haiti's most notorious political assassinations, accusing nine people, including close associates of former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, of having had a hand in the killing of the radio journalist Jean Dominique. Mirlande Libérus, a former senator from Mr. Aristide's political party, Lavalas, was indicted as the organizer of the murder in April 2000 of Mr. Dominique, owner of Radio Haiti Inter, and a security guard, according to a summary of the judge's report made public by an Appeals Court panel on Friday. Gunmen shot the two victims as Mr. Dominique was arriving by car at the radio station's office in Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital, according to the report. Evidence indicated that Mr. Libérus had been ordered by Mr. Aristide to silence Mr. Dominique, a popular journalist and human rights activist, the report said, citing witnesses who had testified before Judge Yvikel Dabrésil. The judge did not indict Mr. Aristide as part of the conspiracy, apparently concluding that evidence was insufficient. Mr. Dominique's widow, Michèle Montas, welcomed news of the report, saying it was a "positive step."
