Haiti parliament rejects President Martelly's PM choice
The Haitian parliament has rejected President Michel Martelly's choice of prime minister, in an early political blow to the new leader.

Deputies voted 42 to 19 to turn down Daniel-Gerard Rouzier for the post.

Several deputies argued that there could be a possible conflict of interest as Mr Rouzier runs companies that have government contracts.

The two chambers of parliament are dominated by the Inite party, which backed Mr Martelly's rival for the presidency.
