Question:  Two questions on Haiti and Sri Lanka.  In Haiti, AP has reported that they’re saying that a bullet killed the protester, not a blunt object as was stated here.  One, [inaudible] found out whether the peacekeepers used live ammunition or not; and two, what is the UN’s response to, I think the UN was the one that said that it was a blunt object.  I mean, what are the next steps? Spokesperson:  Well, that is what MINUSTAH had said, that’s true.  But there was an autopsy performed, and as far as I know, the result of the autopsy is not out yet.  The matter is in the hands of the Haitian authorities who are investigating, right now, what happened.  And in terms of the UN, MINUSTAH, using live ammunition, I was told by MINUSTAH that they fired in the air.
