Journalist tells of kidnap by Haitian gang
Jean Sacra Sean Roubens was travelling with an American Youtuber to interview notorious gang leader Jimmy 'Barbecue' Chérizier when the pair were kidnapped.
Still living in Haiti, Roubens said the experience had made him reconsider the nature of his work. He said he still feared for his life, citing the involvement of 'high authorities' in gang crime.
