Haiti's president says ex-dictator must face justice if he returns from exile

International Herald Tribune: "Haiti's president said Friday that former dictator Jean-Claude 'Baby Doc' Duvalier would have to face justice for his regime's corruption and abuses if he returns to the Caribbean country from exile. Duvalier, whose rule came to an abrupt end in February 1986 when he fled during a popular uprising, ended years of silence over the weekend with a Haitian radio address in which he apologized for 'wrongs' committed under his rule. He did not say whether he would return to Haiti, but his unexpected address came amid a quiet campaign by some of his hardcore supporters to bring him back from France."
