PORT-AU-PRINCE — The Canadian government added two more Haitians, a former senator and a businessman, to its sanctions list for the pair’s alleged financial and operational support of armed gangs in Haiti.

Nenel Cassy, is a former senator from the Nippes region, and Steeve Khawly, is an entrepreneur who ran unsuccessfully for president of Haiti. Their addition brings the sanctioned list of Haitians to 19 people, including former president Michel Martelly and former prime ministers.
