Cherizier began his active gang adventure while denying any culpability. He assumed charge of the ‘G9 and Family,’ which rules the streets and impoverished areas of Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti.
Jimmy Cherizier takes pleasure in his gangster notoriety and has frequently invited the global press to inform them of his influence.
According to media reports, Jimmy Cherizier, also known as “Babekyou” or “Barbecue,” is the head of the infamous “G9 and Family” gang and is currently the most powerful person in Haiti.
Cherizier’s habit of burning people alive and allegedly eating them is what gave rise to the nickname “Barbecue.”
With the popularity of “Barbecue” growing, a video of a “cannibal” gang member consuming human body parts has surfaced.
A Haitian guy is shown in the video on X cutting and chewing flesh off the leg of a burning body. Now, a few of the videos that were posted on X have been taken down. The films appear to be two years old, according to reports.
The current mayhem spearheaded by ‘Barbecue’ is an effort to topple Prime Minister Ariel Henry, and it became more intense following his departure for a summit last week. He had travelled to Kenya in order to acquire command of an international security operation supported by the UN to assist police in combating armed gangs in Haiti.
Gunfights broke out when government forces sought to stop the prime minister from landing in the midst of the gang member’s effort to take control of the international airport. Due to military actions against gunmen attempting to take control of the international airport, PM Henry was unable to arrive in the capital of Haiti.
Violence and Cannibalism
Cannibalism has been observed in the streets as the degree of violence in Haiti rises to new heights.
Pictures of gang leaders ingesting the people they kill have been shown to us. Under condition of anonymity, the journalist from Haiti stated, “We have seen images of people being tortured when they are kidnapped.”
