Eight Turkish citizens have been kidnapped in Haiti’s capital, an official told The Associated Press on Monday, apparently the latest in a string of high-profile kidnappings by powerful gangs. Hugues Josue, Turkey’s honorary consul in Haiti, said the group had boarded a bus in the neighboring Dominican Republic and were kidnapped late Sunday afternoon in the Croix-des-Bouquets neighborhood of Port-au-Prince. Josue said he did not have any details on a potential ransom request, and no additional information was immediately available.

The gang demanded $1 million in ransom and held most of them until December. A diplomat from the Dominican Republic was kidnapped in the same neighborhood earlier this month and later freed.
