Stateless and now homeless: Despair on Haiti border (2) Mileyda Benacio is 19 years old, seven months pregnant and effectively stateless -- expelled from the Dominican Republic, the land of her birth, to neighboring Haiti late last year after the Constitutional Court controversially ruled that children born to undocumented immigrants in the Dominican Republic are not Dominican citizens. She has since taken refuge in Fonds Parisien, Haiti, close to the border, among other migrants in similar situations. IMAGES
