Survivors of massacre in small Haitian town where 70 died point finger at government.

Angry whispers have broken the heavy silence that fell over Pont-Sondé just days after a vicious gang attack left more than 70 dead.

They huddled by the roadside, stood under leafy trees or milled around the lone cemetery.

"I have to thank the government, because the gangs are killing people and kids cannot go to school," survivor says.

The leader of Gran Grif , Luckson Elan , was recently sanctioned by the U.N. and U.S. government.

Also sanctioned was Prophane Victor , the former legislator accused of arming young men in the Artibonite region.

Chavanne and others questioned what police plan to do now.
