Former Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide has said he will remain in South Africa indefinitely, until peace and stability has returned to his country. Aristide's Lavalas party is expected to be in the running for the Nov. 20 elections, though its prospects were dampened by the incarceration of its presidential candidate, Gerard Jean-Juste, in July on suspicion of abetting the kidnapping and killing of a journalist.
