Haiti Kidnapping of YourFellowArab Captured in Newly Released Trailer

Back in March, it was reported that the streamer YourFellowArab had been kidnapped by Haiti’s 400 Mawozo gang. They allegedly demanded a $600,000 ransom for his release. The news spread like wildfire, sparking concern over his well-being.

Now, after 17 days, he has been released, stating he was “kidnapped purely for the color of my skin” and kept “in the middle of a Haitian desert, 60 minutes away from any civilization, in a concrete shack surrounded by barbed wire.”

Recently, on 8 April, the trailer was released, featuring him from the time he was taken into custody, living in the not-so-pleasing environment, to being released.

In the video, he can be seen imprisoned in a concrete building surrounded by dogs. The compound is far away from the city, in an area named ‘Croix des Bouquets.’

According to Arab, he was taken into a jungle by “corrupt” UN employees and border guards to interview Jimmy ‘Barbecue’ Cherizier, one of Haiti’s most dangerous gang leaders. Currently, he controls Port-au-Prince. Jimmy was the one who demanded the resignation of the country’s president.
