- Christ-Roi Chéry is the leader of the Ti Bwa gang, which is affiliated with the Viv Ansanm (also called G9) coalition of gangs in Haiti. Since February 2024, the Ti Bwa gang has controlled the commune of Carrefour. Under Christ-Roi Chéry’s command, the Ti Bwa gang is engaged in violence and criminal activities in Haiti, including murder, robbery, rape, hijacking of goods and trucks, extortion, targeted assassinations and drugs trafficking. Christ-Roi Chéry is therefore responsible for actions that threaten peace, stability and security in Haiti, including engaging in criminal activities and violence involving armed groups and criminal networks that promote violence, including forcible recruitment of children by such groups and networks, kidnappings, homicides and sexual and gender-based violence.
