Williams Régala

Williams Régala is a former member of Haiti's National Council of Government. He was a member of the short-lived first council (7 February 1986 – 20 March 1986), as well as the second council, which ruled until 7 February 1988, when Leslie Manigat took office. Régala had been the head of the secret service under Jean-Claude Duvalier, and was Interior Minister under the National Council. When Manigat took office he appointed Régala Minister of Defense.

Régala was alleged to have been involved in the illegal drug trade in Haiti. "The U.S. senate ... heard testimony in 1988 that then interior minister, Gen. Williams Regala, and his DEA liaison officer, protected and supervised cocaine shipments."
