Haiti’s Prime Minister Ariel Henry has sacked the justice minister after the latter backed a prosecutor who sought charges against Mr Henry over the murder of President Jovenel Moïse.
The government is in disarray after another senior official resigned saying that he would not work under a prime minster “who had come under suspicion for the murder of the president”.
Mr Henry has not commented on the allegations.
Mr Moïse was shot dead on 7 July.
Gunmen stormed his residence in the suburbs of the capital, Port-au-Prince, and killed him and injured his wife.
Police say they have arrested 44 people – including 18 former Colombian soldiers – in connection with the killing but the investigation into who may have ordered the killing continues.
