On Libya UNICRI Advertises For 2 Law Firms Compounding UN Failure and Corruption

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

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 Office, 21-mc-00852 (Koeltl / Moses)
