Former president of Haiti, Jovenel Moïse was laid to rest on Friday during a private funeral service amid heavy security and continued political uncertainty.
Uniformed members of Haiti's military served as pallbearers, as the body arrived shortly after dawn at his family's seaside property where the funeral was held.
Mr. Moïse was shot at least 12 times when armed gunmen invaded his private residence on July 7.
His wife, Martine, was injured during the attack and had to seek medical treatment in the United States, returning last weekend.
Earlier this week, she told Haitians that the funeral would be paid for by the family rather than the public treasury.
