THE widow of assassinated Haitian President Jovenel Mo?se told how he was gunned down in "the blink of an eye" before he could say a word.

The president’s 47-year-old wife told how "suddenly, the mercenaries came and pelted my husband with bullets."
She continued, “You have to be a notorious criminal without guts to assassinate a president like Jovenel Mo?se with impunity, without giving him the chance to speak.”
She said her husband was gunned down “In the blink of an eye…without even giving him a chance to say a word”.
Speaking from her hospital bed, she spoke fondly of her late husband, saying how "love radiated within the home" that he was later slaughtered in.
Mrs Mo?se's heartfelt comments comes after Joe Biden rebuffed Haiti's plea for help and refused to send in troops following the assassination.
Haitian government officials pleaded with the US President for help to safeguard the country's infrastructure on Friday.
Shocking footage shows the moment alleged ex-military mercenaries were dragged through the crowded slums of Port-au-Prince after being seized.
It comes after two alleged US mercenaries were paraded by Haitan cops in front of the media after they were arrested over the assassination.
