The abductors of Pastor Lochard Rémy, a popular evangelical singer in Haiti, are demanding US $2 million ransom for his release, according to his wife, Yolie Rémy.
She told local media that the kidnappers ,said to be members of the notorious 400 Mawozo gang, had made the demand less than 24 hours after the abduction of her husband as he made his way to the God Eben Etzer Church for Sunday worship.
The kidnapping is the latest by gangs targeting pastors in Haiti where kidnappings have become a source of income for criminal gangs.
