SDNY / UN GATE,
Dec 1 – Chinese businessman
and fraudster Cary Yan was the
subject of a Federal
indictment unsealed on
September 2, 2022, in the U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New
York.
Using a
UN-affiliated non-governmental
organization, Yan paid bribes
in New York to officers of the
Marshall Islands and others.
Indictment on Inner City
Press' DocumentCloud here.
In 2018,
Inner City Press from inside
the UN reported on Cary Yan's
suspicious activities,
(including video here,
and bribe-bought promotion by
UNCA here)
as it was reporting on the
parallel UN bribery by Patrick
Ho of Ye Jianming's NGO CEFC
China Energy.
On December 1,
2022, Yan and his co-defendant
pled guilty. Inner City Press
was there - thread:
OK - Cary Yan is
here is orange WCDOC prison
garb, signing a lot if papers.
Sure looks like a guilty
plea.
While waiting for
Judge Buchwald, it's worth
noting she recently sentenced
UN rapist Elkorany. Today's UN
is irredeemably corrupt.
Proceeding still
hasn't started because Yan's
lawyer and his co-defendant's
lawyer are whispering and
gesticulating.
All rise!
Judge: One of the
defendant was in the COVID
quarantine wing. Was there a
positive test? A: Not since in
the US. Judge: This will be a
guilty plea.
Yan: I am 52.
Yan: I plead guilty. Judge:
The Foreign Corrupt Practices
Act conspiracy count has a
maximum of 5 years. (Counts
2-5 are being dropped for the
plea deal).
AUSA: The
defendant operated corruptly,
offering payments to a foreign
official [which happens every
day in the UN of Antonio
Guterres , and on Dec 9, a few
miles south, near to
SDNY here
Cary Yan: I am a
citizen of the Marshall
Islands [! He says with 2 US
Marshals behind him. Note:
Even UN briber Ng Lap Seng
didn't cite his various
Caribbean passports.
Now Q&A turns
to the plea agreement that was
being signed. Yan is
reading his allocution to the
crime in Chinese. Of course,
he bought Marshall Islands
citizenship.
Yan: I headed an
NGO. I agreed to bribe
Marshalese officials,
including in the USA...
Manhattan. [United Nations
-outrageous claims there, in
ECOSOC chamber]
The plea
agreement for Cary Yan has a
stipulated guideline sentence
of 57 to 60 months.
[Plea agreement
on Inner City Press'
DocumentCloud here]
Guilty plea is
accepted by the judge.
Sentencing set for late Feb
but could be earlier since
parents' visa running out.
[Update: after
Inner City Press' initial
report, Yan retained Jonathan
Bolz, who also represented
Patrick Ho. Word is Yan was
extradited in from Thailand
and will be presented before
the assigned District Judge
Naomi Reice Buchwald, who also
presided over sentencing to 15
years of UN rapist Karim
Elkorany]
Soon thereafter,
Inner City Press was thrown
out of the UN by Secretary
General Antonio Guterres, who
omitted from his financial
disclosures his link to
CEFC.
On September 2,
2022, after finding the
just-unsealed Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act (FCPA)
indictment of Yan and Gina
Zhou in the docket at the SDNY
court which it now covers,
still banned from the UN,
Inner City Press emailed
Guterres, his spokespeople
Stephane Dujarric, Eri Kaneko
and Melissa Fleming questions
about the UN's role in the
bribery by the NGOs, including
the United Nations
International Organization for
Sustainable Development and
the World Organization of
Governance and
Competitiveness, WOGC. No
answer.
On November 10,
Yan's lawyer asked to delay
the November 15 conference to
December 1 "to provide the
parties additional time to
discuss a potential resolution
of the matter." A plea? Watch
this site.
Inner City Press
resurfaces:
A
whistleblower
forwarded this
to Inner City
Press: "UNCA is
extending an
invitation from
the Permanent
Mission of
Zambia to the UN
and the World
Organization of
Governance and
Competitiveness
to a High-level
Global Meeting
discussing 'Road
to the Future of
Sustainable
Development:
Moving from
Commitments to
Results through
Inclusive
Innovation,'
taking place on
Friday, August
25th from 1:30 -
6:00 pm in
ECOSOC chamber.
Sherwin
Bryce-Pease,
President,
United Nations
Correspondents
Association."
The promotion:
"H.E Mr.
Lazarous
Kapambwe,
Permanent
Representative
of Zambia to the
United Nations,
Mr. Cary Yan,
President of
WOGC, Special
Guests include:
H.E. Mme Marie
Chatardová,
President of the
Economic and
Social Council
(tbc), H.E. Mr.
António
Guterres, United
Nations
Secretary
General (tbc),
H.E. Mme Lorena
Herrera, Vice
President of
Honduras, H.E.
Mr. Alvaro
Colom, Former
President of
Guatemala, H.E.
Mr. Kessai H.
Note, Former
President of the
Republic of the
Marshall
Islands, H.E.
Mr. Francisco
Merino, Former
Vice President
of El Salvador,
Hon. Mr. Freidi
Torres, Former
President of
Legislative
Assembly of the
Republic of
Panama." The
press release
said Antonio
Guterres would
speak.
Then
Guterres had
Inner City Press
thrown out of
the UN, and his
UNCA did nothing
(here).
So far, no
response - complicity and
corruption.
The case is US v.
Yan, 20-cr-402 (Buchwald)
