SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 21 – The
United Nations has largely
failed on Libya, as it has on
Yemen, Cameroon, Haiti,
Nigeria, Sri Lanka, you name
it.
But in Libya, now
a UN body is openly
advertising for corporate law
firms. Inbox:
"The LARMO team has the
backing of major international
criminal justice bodies,
including the United Nations
International Crime and
Research Institute, based in
Turin, Italy. James Shaw,
UNICRI’s senior legal office
in charge of asset recovery
stated, "The transparent but
aggressive legal strategy
proposed by LARMO’s engaged
professionals, BakerHostetler
and Holland & Knight, is
considered by UNICRI as ideal
in the recovery of Libyan
assets for the benefit of the
Libyan people. This strategy
will improve Libya’s capacity
to effect positive results in
European and North American
judicial
courts." How
can the head of UN entity put
out an ad for two for profit
businesses? Isn't this just
more corruption?
Inner City Press,
for asking questions just like
this to UN Secretary General
Antonio Guterres who hid his
links to SDNY convicted
bribery firm CEFC China
Energy, has been banned from
the UN and its briefings since
3 July 2018 and none of its
written questions are being
answered, nor a polite pro
bono letter from Quinn
Emanuel to the UN's
Melissa Fleming. We'll have
more on this
corruption.
This case is Ex
Parte Application of Libyan
Asset Recovery and Management
