SDNY / UN GATE,
Jan 7 – Ghislaine
Maxwell,
charged with
six counts of
sex
trafficking
and other
charges, was
late on
December 29
found guilty
on five of the
six counts.
Inner City
Press, which
pressed
for a public
call-in line
and unsealing of
exhibits throughout,
live tweeted
it here. Now
#MaximumMaxwell
book here.
The day
after the
guilty verdict
for Jeffrey
Epstein's
procurer and
partner
Ghislaine
Maxwell, Inner
City Press
wrote to
Norway's
Mission to the
UN, whose
Ambassador
Mona Juul is
president of
the UN
Security
Council for
January 2022.
Juul
is also the
wife and
partner of
Terje
Roed-Larsen,
whose
International
Peace
Institute
connections to
Epstein Inner
City Press
exposed,
before it was
thrown
out of the
UN by UNSG
Antonio
Guterres (with
his
own
Maxwell links. Inner
City Press was
also removed
by IPI, here.)
Inner
City Press
again asked
Norway's UN
Mission about
these
connections,
including
Epstein's
$130,000
personal loan
to Roed-Larsen
(and at least
$650,000 in
grants to
IPI), and for
access to
Juul's January
4, 1 pm press
conference of
UNSC
President.
A week
later there
had been no
answer at all
- total
corruption.
Crown Princess
Mette-Marit of
Norway
cavorted with
Epstein long
after he
served time
for under-age
sex; the
Celina
Mildfart
connection was
testified to
at the Maxwell
trial.
So
on January 7
Inner City
Press sent not
only Juul but
also Astrid Sehl, Trine Heimerback and Nini Pharo Halle
(other Norway
mission
staffers, paid
by the public,
are listed
only as firstname.lastname,
corrupt)
this:
"Again,
because you
are president
of the UN
Security
Council for
January, Inner
City Press is
sending you
these
questions for
response on
deadline - be
aware they
have been put
to the UN
Spokesperson
and Secretary
General as
well, without
answer - what
has the UN
come to? This
is to you, on
deadline:
On DRC /
MONUSCO and
Burundi, what
are the
comments and
actions if any
of SG Guterres
on that
Burundian
troops have
been sighted
in South-Kivu
province,
eastern DRC,
according to
local
sources?
On Cameroon
what are the
comments and
actions if any
of SG Guterres
on that A
senior
official
involved in
Cameroon's
hosting of the
Africa Cup of
Nations has
assured that
separatist
rebels pose no
threat to the
tournament,
which begins
on
Sunday.
Engamba
Emmanuel
Ledoux
admitted that
last week
groups
fighting for
the
independence
of Anglophone
Cameroon set
off an
explosion in
the town of
Limbé, which
will host some
of the
games.
But he said
the government
had introduced
security
measures to
stop the
rebels from
attacking the
event or the
nearby town of
Buer, where
some of the
players are
expected to
stay.
"The threats
have been
going on. This
is not the
first time.
You know, we
organized the
Chan [African
Nations
Championship]
last year
within the
same
environment,"
he
said.
On Burundi,
Rwanda and
COVID what are
the comments
and actions if
any of SG
Guterres on
that twelve
Rwandans
including
women and
children have
been pushed
out by
Burundian
authorities
after refusing
to get the
Covid
jab.
They spent
more than five
days on the
Nyakarama hill
in Kirundo
province in
northern
Burundi.
They said they
had fled the
ongoing
mandatory
vaccination
campaign in
Rwanda.
The provincial
governor,
Albert
Hatungimana,
directed that
they be
deported to
Rwanda.
Last Thursday,
nine other
Rwandan
nationals were
repatriated to
their country
by the
authorities in
the province.
They had also
fled the
mandatory
vaccination
campaign.
In a security
meeting, the
governor
signalled on
Tuesday that
he could not
welcome people
who do not
adhere to the
government's
Covid-19
response
programme.
He said
everyone had
to get
vaccinated so
as to be
allowed to
stay in the
country.
On the UN's
ban of Inner
City Press,
from UNHQ and
also UNDT
proceeding,
what is
SG Guterres'
response to
this:
UNAT:
https://www.un.org/en/internaljustice/files/unat/judgments/2021-UNAT-1170.pdf
my appeal was
initially
assigned to a
three judge
panel, two of
whom ended up
on the dissent
favoring me.
So it appears
they recruit
four more
judges,
without
following
their own
rules and
informing
me.
From the
dissent of
Judge Colgan,
Auckland, New
Zealand, Judge
Sandhu,
Vancouver,
Canada and
Judge Neven,
Brussels,
Belgium: "In
addition to
not being
entitled to
use it
as a sanction
for contempt
against Mr.
Lee for
reasons set
out by us
above, we do
not
consider that
the UNDT can
otherwise ban
his attendance
at hearings
indefinitely
and in
blanket
fashion.
Accepting that
closing
hearings of
proceedings
may arguably
include
closing
them
selectively to
certain
persons,
exceptional
circumstances
will be
required for
such an
order to be
made, and on a
case-by-case
basis."
But SG
Guterres has
created a
lifetime ban
on Inner City
Press, at
least since 3
July 2018,
with no answer
by USG Melissa
Fleming, to
Quinn
Emanuel's
letter. How is
this
consistent
with the most
basic respect
for press
freedom?
Even the 4-3
majority
decision of
Judge Halfeld,
Presiding,
Juiz de Fora,
Brazil, Judge
Murphy, Cape
Town, South
Africa, Judge
Raikos,
Athens,
Greece
and Judge
Knierim,
Hamburg,
Germanyconcludes:
"insofar as
Mr. Lee may or
may not have a
legitimate
grievance,
redress
does not
lie in the
hands of the
Appeals
Tribunal." And
the SG??
On Tunisia
what are the
comments and
actions if any
of SG Guterres
on that
Supporters of
a former
Tunisian
justice
minister say
he’s fighting
for his life
after refusing
food and
medication
since his
arrest last
week.
Noureddine
Bhiri, deputy
chairman of
the Islamist
Ennahdha
party, is
accused of
possible
terrorism
offences. His
supporters
deny the
allegations.
Mr Bhiri, who
played a
central role
in Tunisian
politics
before
President Kais
Saied
suspended
parliament
last July, is
said to suffer
from several
serious
pre-existing
health
problems.
His Ennahdha
party
colleague,
Samir Dilou,
said medical
sources had
described the
former
minister as
being “between
life and
death”.
On South
Sudan, what
are the
comments and
actions if any
on that South
Sudan’s
President
Salva Kiir has
dismissed the
central bank
governor and
appointed a
replacement.
The dismissal
of Dier Tong
Ngor was
announced in a
presidential
decree read on
the national
broadcaster on
Monday
night.
No reasons
were given for
his
sacking.
He was
replaced by
Moses Makur
Deng who has
been a
director-general
in charge of
banks’
supervision
and research
at the
bank.
South Sudan’s
economy is
driven by oil,
which accounts
for nearly 90%
of the
country’s
national
budget.
The economy is
in a bad shape
due to the
conflict and
the drop in
global oil
price as a
result of
Covid-19
pandemic.
On UN sexual
abuse, as
Inner City
Press asked
each of you on
Dec 27, 2021
with no
answer, "On UN
sexual
exploitation
and abuse -
alleged - this
is a request
on the new
cases of UN
sexual abuse
by UN
"peacekeepers"
from Cameroon
UN
"peaceekeepers"
in CAR and
Indian
peacekeeper in
DRC data
dumped at
11:31 a.m. on
Dec 27, 2021
along with
another case
in CAR by a
"peacekeeper"
from Burundi,
and the
previous UN
child rape in
CAR by UN
"peacekeeping"
troop Burkina
Faso (Oct 19)
and from
Burundi -
child rape! -
and SEA by
Tanzania
troops in DRC
data dumped at
12:02 pm on
Oct 7, and
earlier
(unanswered)
from Peru
(Sept 29),
Gabon and "the
Congo" - and
Nepal
peacekeeper
child rape in
DRC -
data-dumped at
10:07 am on
July 21, 2021
that you
immediately
provide the
"if asked"
information
and answer
this:
Why has USG
Fleming not
deigned to
answer in any
way the Quinn
Emanuel law
firm's letter
to her dated
July 6, 2021
regarding
re-admitting
Inner City
Press as a UN
resident
correspondent?
also all those
earlier in
July and the
June 15
data-dumped
cases none of
you have
answered Inner
City Press on,
also about
case of child
rape in CAR by
a Gabon
"peacekeeper,"
a UN civilian
child rape in
DRC and a UN
civil sex
abuse case in
South Sudan,
all data
dumped at
12:35 pm on
Jan 5, 2021,
after Farhan
Haq's
2-question
"briefing" and
the earlier
cases of
child rape and
sexual
exploitation
by UN
"peacekeepers"
from Morocco,
Uruguay,
Ethiopia,
Senegal and
Benin and
again
Cameroon, in
DRC and
Central
African
Republic just
cursorily data
dumped onto
the UN website
today December
10 (Human
Rights Day and
that you
immediately
provide the
"granular"
information
that was
promised today
at noon to
correspondents
who barely ask
or publish
about this
topic. What is
being done for
the victims?
Also, again,
what is
Guterres'
answer, which
you refused to
provide after
banned Inner
City Press
asked you and
others in
writing on the
morning of
August 19 that
you
"immediately
provide all
if-asked and
additional
information
about the new
allegation of
SEA announced
of child rape
by a
Cameroonian
"peacekeeper"
in DR Congo,
and why this
has been left
so long
UNanswered -
and also why
previously
published
charges are no
longer in the
data to which
UN
Peacekeeping
Conduct and
Discipline
points,
including what
if being done
for these
victims and
any steps
taken to avoid
this constant
repetition of
abuse despite
the SG's
ostensible
commitments.
Again, are new
allegations
being buried
elsewhere on
the data page?
Inner City
Press is
asking in
writing
because banned
from the noon
briefings and
any follow up
questions, now
for more than
a year. On
August 24
Inner City
Press
re-applied for
admission to
cover the UNGA
high level
week; on
August 30 it
was summarily
rejected, with
no or only
Kafka-esque
reasoning.
Today, as
before none of
Inner City
Press' written
questions,
including on
Cameroon, have
been answered.
This is a
request that
you
immediately
confirm
receipt of
these
questions and
requests.
This is a
request that
you
immediately
confirm
receipt of
these
questions and
requests and
explain how UN
spox and
official
blocking such
questions is
not complicity
-Matthew
Russell Lee,
InnerCityPress.com"
In
the media coverage of Maxwell,
media all of the world used a
video and stills from it of
Maxwell speaking in front of a
blue curtain, like here.
What they
did not mention is something
Inner City Press has been
asking the UN about, as under
UNSG Antonio Guterres with his
own sexual exploitation issues
(exclusive video
and audio)
it got roughed up and banned
from the UN: Ghislaine Maxwell
had a ghoulish United Nations
press conference, under the
banner of the "Terramar
Project," here.
On July 5,
after some crowd-sourcing,
Inner City Press reported on
another Ghislaine Maxwell use
of the United Nations,
facilitated by Italy's
Permanent Representative to
the UN, UN official Nikhil
Seth and Amir Dossal,
who also let into the UN and
in one case took money from
convicted UN briber Ng Lap
Seng, and Patrick Ho of CEFC
China Energy, also linked to
UN Secretary General Antonio
Guterres.
At the
Ghislaine Maxwell UN event,
the UN Deputy Secretary
General was directly involved.
List of (some of)
the participants on Patreon here.
Inner City
Press has published a phone of
Maxwell in the UN with Dossal,
here. But the connection runs
deeper: Dossal with "25 years
of UN involvement" was on
Terrarmar's board of
directors, one of only five
directors, only three not
related to Maxwell by blood
and name.
The directors:
Ghislaine Maxwell, Christine
Malina-Maxwell, Steven Haft,
Christine Dennison and... Amir
Dossal. Inner City Press is
publishing this full 990 on
Patreon here.
Dossal has
operated through the UN Office
of Partnership, with Antonio
Guterres and his deputy Amina
J. Mohammed, here.
And the links to
the world of UN bribery,
including Antonio Guterres
through the Gulbenkian
Foundation, runs deeper. More
to follow.
Antonio Guterres
claims he has zero tolerance
for sexual exploitation, but
covers it up and even
participate in it. He should
be forced to resign - and/or
have immunity waived.
Terramar
has been dissolved, even
though Maxwell's former
fundraiser / director of
development Brian Yurasits
still lists the URL on his
(protected) Twitter profile,
also here.
But now
Inner City Press has begun to
inquire into Ghislaine
Maxwell's other United Nations
connections, starting with
this photograph of another
day's (or at least another
outfit's) presentation in the
UN, here.
While co-conspirator Antonio
Guterres has had Inner City
Press banned from any entry
into the UN for two years and
a day, this appears to be in
the UN Economic and Social
Council (ECOSOC) chamber.
We'll have more on this, and
on Epstein and the UN. Watch
this site.
The case
is US v. Maxwell, 20-cr-330
(Nathan).
