YouTube content creator Addison Pierre Maalouf, better known as YourFellowArab, has recently disclosed the first footage capturing his experience of being held hostage by a Haitian gang, following his release after a captivity period spanning over two weeks. This footage marks a significant development in understanding the circumstances surrounding the YouTube personality's ordeal.
For those who may not be aware, towards the end of March, reports surfaced revealing that YourFellowArab and his companion had been abducted while traveling in Haiti by the notorious 400 Mawozo gang. The gang demanded a ransom of $600,000 for the safe release of the Youtuber, prompting widespread concern among his fans and fellow content creators. Thankfully, on March 30, it was confirmed that the YouTuber had been liberated from captivity. Following his release, YourFellowArab acknowledged the significant role played by social media pressure from his fans in securing his freedom.
While the news of YourFellowArab's release was met with a range of reactions, many users eagerly anticipated YourFellowArab's YouTube video describing his ordeal. Responding to this anticipation, on March 8, YourFellowArab released a trailer for his video titled "I Spent 17 Days Kidnapped in Haiti," shedding light on the grim circumstances of his captivity. In the video, YourFellowArab describes being imprisoned by one of Haiti's most powerful gang leaders, Lanmo Sanjou, and confined behind a «reinforced door surrounded by barbed wire and guard dogs in a concrete prison» located in «Croix des Bouquets,» feeling utterly helpless.
According to YourFellowArab, the ordeal began when he was escorted into the country by a group of border guards and United Nations staff for an interview with Barbecue, Haiti’s most powerful gang leader, whose actions had caused turmoil in Haiti. However, YourFellowArab claimed to have been betrayed by BSAP officers and ambushed by the 400 Mawozo gang, who then held him at gunpoint and transported him to a remote location. The video also includes a snippet of YourFellowArab's conversation with the gang leader, Lanmo Sanjou, where the leader demanded ransom for his release. It is worth noting that this is merely a trailer for a longer video set to be released soon, which has already garnered significant attention, amassing over 200,000 views on YouTube within just 18 hours of its release, accompanied by over 15,000 likes.
While it will be interesting to see which details the YouTuber will release next, it's worth mentioning that content creators often encounter challenging situations.
