A 53‑year‑old man identified as Moïse was fatally shot on 7 July 2021 at his private residence. According to investigators, the killing was carried out by a hired contingent of roughly 20 mercenaries who were trained in the Colombian military, and the victim’s personal security team did not intervene during the attack.
Authorities are treating the incident as a premeditated assassination involving a sizable, organized group of armed contractors. The failure of Moïse’s security detail to respond has prompted an internal review of protective protocols, while law‑enforcement agencies continue to pursue the individuals who orchestrated and executed the assault.
