Baby Doc is back in Haiti

JEAN-CLAUDE “Baby Doc” Duvalier, a once feared and reviled dictator who was ousted in a popular uprising nearly 25 years ago, has made a stunning return to Haiti, raising concerns he could complicate efforts to solve a political crisis, a cholera outbreak and the stalled reconstruction from last year’s earthquake.

Duvalier’s arrival at the airport on Sunday was as mysterious as it was unexpected. He greeted several hundred cheering supporters but did not say why he chose this period to suddenly reappear from exile in France.
