In Haiti, former Prime Minister Yvon Neptune has been freed after spending more than two years in prison. Neptune walked out of the National Penitentiary on Thursday frail and barely able to speak. He has been on a hunger strike for much of the past 15 months to protest his imprisonment. He was immediately taken to a hospital for treatment. Yvon Neptune was jailed shortly after the 2004 coup that ousted Haitian President Jean Bertrand Aristide. He was never charged with a crime and was the most high profile political prisoner detained by the U.S.-backed interim government.
