The former president of Haiti, Jean-Claude Duvalier, has returned to the country, 25 years after he was overthrown by a popular revolt.
Mr Duvalier, 59, also known as "Baby Doc", arrived on a flight from France where he had been living in exile.
It was not clear what prompted his return, though he said he wanted "to help the people of Haiti" following last year's devastating earthquake.
He arrived amid political uncertainty after disputed presidential elections.
Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive said there was no reason to believe Mr Duvalier's return would destabilise the country.
"He is a Haitian and, as such, is free to return home," said Mr Bellerive. BBC News
