UN GATE / SDNY COURT, May 5 –  Inner City Press on 5 July 2018 was banned from entering the UN, two day after it was physically removed from conducting interviews outside meeting about the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres' $6.7 billion budget.

  Then Guterres' Department of Global Communication, run by Melissa Fleming, issued a letter banning Inner City Press from the UN - for life. With no due process, no right of appeal.  Guterres has put the UN in the US Press Freedom Tracker, here. Guterres' Spokesman Stephane Dujarric falsely promised on camera that he would be answering banned Inner City Press' questions - but see below.

     On May 5 before another phoned-in UN noon briefing by Stephane "French Whine" Dujarric, previously the face of UN lies on cholera in Haiti, now amid his and Guterres' cover up COVID-19's spread by the UN to and in Mali and in South Sudan with a national staff bus without social distancing -- Inner City Press asked Guterres, here and now of an official flying out while under quarantine and internationals "working out" in Tomping, Inner City Press submitted yet more questions (blocked by Dujarric's screener Florencia Soto Nino on +1 917 226 7816 and Dujarric himself on +1 917 622 7652) including asking for an immediate response about the UN South Sudan transcript leaked to it and the basis on which it continues to be lawlessly banned from entering to ask questions in person.  On April 13 there was no answer from Farhan Haq on +1 917 592 4591, not even a confirmation of receipt, and now UN official like Hua Jiang, Eri Kaneko and others to be named blocking email questions about the UN's spread of Covid 19 - May 5 video with commentary here and here -  Inner City Press asked:

May 5-1: On the Coronavirus Covid-19 and the UN in South Sudan, immediately provide Inner City Press which has asked for a month SG Guterres' response now to the petition to him from South Sudanese about UNMISS spreading COVID-19, precisely as Inner City Press has asked you all repeatedly in writing, and audibly asked Guterres on Sutton Place, and why he/you are not complicit. Excerpt:  "it turned out Mr. Shearer was not talking hypothetically, as he had known for a while that a member of the United Nations staff had shown symptoms of the virus after returning into the country on February 28th but the UN did not disclose this information to South Sudan’s health officials until April 3rd, potentially exposing many people to the disease.  This person was finally tested by local health experts and was confirmed positive, becoming the country’s first confirmed case of COVID-19. South Sudanese are now as afraid for their lives as they are outraged by this UN’s behavior."  Please immediately also state any and all involvement by UNDP and its staff in these South Sudan incidents, both the international staffer who came in with COVID, and/or the one who left while still ostensibly under quarantine and isolation.

 What has SG Guterres done about that in early April 2020, Chinese authorities in the southern city of Guangzhou, Guangdong province, which has China’s largest African community, began a campaign to forcibly test Africans for the coronavirus, and ordered them to self-isolate or to quarantine in designated hotels. Landlords then evicted African residents, forcing many to sleep on the street, and hotels, shops, and restaurants refused African customers. Other foreign groups have generally not been subjected to similar treatment.

 On the Secretariat's proposal for voting including for UNSC seat, published by Inner City Press on May 1, please explain the proposal for physical voting at different times, and separately how eBallot voting was be verified and validated. This is a question to the Secretariat; it is being cc-ed to the PGA's spokesperson for answer as well. 

On Kenya, on which you singled out Ban Ki-moon's son in law for praise, what has the UN or he done about the government's use of World Bank Covid-19 funds for tea and snacks (see InnerCityPress.com) and that thousands of people have been made homeless in Kenya's capital, Nairobi, after a government excavator flattened their tin-sheet houses in the Kariobangi area.  The demolition was supervised by armed police officers from Monday dawn.  Residents told journalists that they had not been notified to leave.  The Daily Nation newspaper has shared a video on Twitter of the demolitions; and that on March 27, Kenya’s first day of curfew, police in Mombasa allegedly assaulted Peter Wainana, a journalist with one of Kenya’s leading television stations, NTV, long before curfew time. Wainaina was reporting on how police used excessive force against people queuing to board a ferry back home from work ahead of the curfew.  On March 29, police reportedly attacked George Muriithi, a cameraperson for a local television station, Weru, while he filmed police officers and government administrators using violence to enforce social distancing rules on traders in Mintuguu market, Meru County.  On the same day, police arrested three journalists – John Wanyama and Charles Kerecha of Citizen TV, and Mukoya Aywah, an independent journalist – reportedly for violating the curfew in Uasin Gishu and Kiambu counties, despite a government exemption for media from curfew restrictions. The journalists had been asking the public and the police about the curfew implementation.

  In Cameroon, WHO on April 28 gave the government 14 vehicles citing COVID-19. How do the UN - and SG Guterres - assess the Biya government's response to Coronavirus in Cameroon and its prisons? 

In Honduras, President JOH talked up hydroxychloroquin - what does SG Guterres say about that, and about JOH named today in narco-trafficking complaint in SDNY against former Honduran National Police Chief Tigre Bonilla? 

On UNOPS / UN system corruption, what are the responses of SG Guterres and those emailed this complaint (DSG, USG Pollard, Jan Beagle, etc) now published by Inner City Press

"On 24 April 2020, Mr. Marius Russo-Got das received a piece of evidence that his Management Evaluation Request was unacceptable and illegit affected by the action of a member of UNOPS Management Evaluation Unit. A member of the UNOPS’ Management Evaluation Unit falsified the meaning, conceals, covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact, or fraudulent statement or representation, or fraudulent statement or entry.  [Mrs. Yvrose Strachan] “During our meeting with Mr. Russo‐Got, we mentioned all the information on the attached email [which is messing, probably the Annex A-23 “Meeting Minutes]. I also mentioned to him that if he was unable to identify [I had identified and applied for 19 suitable jobs with UNOPS] a new job in UNOPS, we will follow the next step which is sending him the separation letter since his position would no longer exist beyond 31 January 2019”.  [Kong Leong TOH] Thanks! Would it be fair and accurate to state “Ms. Strachan has advised that at the abovementioned meeting of 25 October 2018, she had also informed you that you would be separated from service if you were unable to find a new job at UNOPS”?  3   [Mrs. Yvrose Strachan] “I cannot remember exactly what I said but I am quite sure that I mentioned that I will forward the separation letter [in fact the post abolishment written notification]”. That’s epic! … and it is demonstrating again a low level of accuracy and trustability of Ms. Strachan’s information or his commitment to not be part of a scam." 

On UN sexual exploitation and abuse - alleged - this is a request as I began on April 27 then April 28 then April 30 for the if-asked and other information on the new sex abuse cases - third batch in four days, no answers, UNSG complicit -  data dumped past 3 pm on April 30 of new sexual abuse including by a UN peacekeeper from Cameroon in CAR in October 2019 and from Tanzania in DRC, as well as the still not provided in-asked information on the charges data dumped past 3:30 pm on April 28 of new sexual abuse including attempted rape charges against UN personnel in Afghanistan and CAR in January 2020 as well as the still not provided in-asked information on the charges data dumped past 2 pm on April 27 by UNMISS in South Sudan, to December 2019 and unspecified - this while the SG has refused including today to answer on South Sudan and UNMISS speading COVID-19 - and those still unanswerd from April 20 involving sexual abuse by UN peacekeeper from Benin in DRC, as well as those data dumped on April 9 about peacekeeper from Mauritania in CAR, as well still on those data dumped on March 9, involving sexual abuse by peacekeeper from Cameroon in CAR

On COVID media crackdown and censorship, beyond your own at UN Secretariat briefings banning Inner City Press and others, unlike other international organizations, what are the comments and actions if any of SG Guterres and separately USG Fleming on that Mozambique Police Command now only inviting state media to press briefings (rather like the UN), and community radio journalist Ibraimo Mbaruco is still missing after sending a text message that he was surrounded by security forces on April 7th?

immediately explain SG Guterres' representative Shearer's order that "UN International staff (only) will be able to access Tomping and/or UN House specifically for exercise activities," which Inner City Press has obtained from outraged UN national staff and published,  comment and what action on 5 new cases in South Sudan and AGAIN immediately provide the UN's response on staff member violating quarantine in South Sudan, the High Level Taskforce memo Inner City Press has be sent and exclusively published. To which country did the staffer go? What is his or her name? What "discipline" was imposed? What has WHO, named in the memo, done?  

AGAIN immediately provide SG Guterres' comment and action on Inner City Press' exclusive on the admission in UNMISS Town Hall transcript sent to banned Inner City Press by disgusted staff that national staff on UN bus had no social distancing, and everything else in that transcript - immediately.  and that UN Security, which Guterres and you used to oust and ban Inner City Press, is violating all New York City (and state) laws by keeping their gym open, with up to three officers using it at once, see

   On CAMEROON, on April 20 Inner City Press asked Watchlist which said it would be "highly problematic" if Guterres does not include Cameroon in his CAAC report. Why hasn't he to date? Is he still claming and taking credit for a ceasefire?  Given the history, explain yesterday's read-out that "we acknowledge the commitment of the President of Cameroon to resolve the conflict in the North‑West and South‑West regions through peaceful means" - and explain why none of Inner City Press' written questions have been answered.

 Why no if-asked information, as Inner City Press has requested here and received in the past, about the new case(s) of UN sexual abuse data dumped this week? 

What are the SG's comments on lawsuits seeking accountability and transparency from China about COVID-19 filed in Missouri and New York and elsewhere? 

On press freedom and COVID-19 and China, what are the comments and actions if any of SG Guterres and separately USG Melissa Fleming on the two journalists who traveled to Wuhan, China to report on what’s happening in the quarantined city?

His mother was also jailed, for 10 years.  Shireli Memtili, a 28-year-old father of two, was sentenced to “200 months” in jail for driving what was likely to have been a non-state-sanctioned imam, and receiving illegal religious education from him, members of his family said.

 What are Guterres and Melissa Fleming doing about Cartoonist & blogger Ramón Nse Esono Ebalé jailed for months in Equatorial Guinea after drawing a caricature of the country's long time leader Obiang?

 On Hong Kong, what are the comments and actions if any of SG Guterres on that on April 18, 2020, the Hong Kong police arrested 15 prominent pro-democracy leaders for “organizing and participating in unlawful assemblies” during the widespread protests? 

On UN peacekeeping, what are the comments and actions of SG Guterres and separately USG Lacroix on reports that the Contingent Commander of the Gambia’s United Nations Peacekeepers stationed in Darfur, Sudan, has been named in a sexual harassment, and fraternization scandal, Freedom Newspaper has just been reliably informed by insiders at Gambia’s Defense Headquarters in Banjul. Lieutenant Colonel Yerro NA Jallow, is the commander of the Gam-Coy 22 Contingent.  He has been accused of dating and having sex with female soldiers, who are part of his contingent. Three female soldiers have been identified as Jallow’s alleged victims... his deputy one Major Sedia Danso. He recently had an altercation with Danso in Darfur.

On Mali, the head of the UN peacekeeping mission in Mali (MINUSMA) said  Mali has reported 56 confirmed cases of COVID-19, including two in MINUSMA - please provide more information on these two, and what safeguards the UN has taken - and in South Sudan. On Cameroon, that Biya has not been seen since March 11.

Also on Cameroon, that Sisiku Ayuk Tabe and Co. express fear of contrating COVID 19 at Yaounde Principal prison  None of the guards they say "have face masks, gloves or other personal protective equipment and they move from one cell room to another”  ? Belatedly provide SG comment and action if any on that President Paul Biya's silence in the face of the coronavirus crisis is causing controversy in Cameroon. Why did Guterres list Cameroon on his April 3 bragging, when Biya's Army continues killing? The inhabitants of Okoyong village in Mamfe, South West region are still mourning the brutal killing of four boys by government soldiers.  Sources say the boys were pulled from a restaurant and killed with live ammunition.? On WHO's Bruce Aylward blatantly avoiding question about Taiwan and virus response, which Inner City Press asked USG Fleming about online on March 28. On the egregious State of Emergency Law which poses a grave threat to human rights in Cambodia? On that in Uganda On March 25, 2020, the government banned public transport and non-food markets. Prior to that it had closed all bars and instituted a mandatory quarantine in hotels for Ugandans returning from high risk countries, for which those in quarantine initially had to pay for. The government has also closed public court hearings.  On March 30, President Yoweri Museveni announced several additional measures, including a nighttime curfew, banning the use of all privately-owned vehicles, and closing shopping malls and non-food stores for 14 days.  The next day, Richard Karemire, the Ugandan army spokesman, announced that the police, the army, and an armed community-policing paramilitary group called the Local Defense Unit (LDU), coordinated by the Ugandan army, would conduct patrols to help enforce the directive. However, security forces have used excessive force, including beating, shooting, and arbitrarily detaining people across the country.  Please immediately state why SG Guterres did not ensure, or apparently even inquire, if UN staff and the families had needed masks before in a publicity stunt giving them away to Penny A and the City's UN office?  Outraged staff have asked banned Inner City Press. And on the March 25 fundraiser, why is there no disclosure of USG Melissa Fleming among the most recent public financial disclosures? Why none for Mark Lowcock? None for Henriette Fore? How can the UN raise money on this opaque basis? Please explain the break down of the March 27 GA/ECOSOC/UNSC meeting livestream, and how questions were selected.  "AGAIN: please immediately state the conditions and mitigation for the lay off of all Delegates Dining Room staff which Inner City Press reported yesterday after being contacted by staff complaining there is no mitigation of economic harm. On Mali, what are the comments and actions if any of SG Guterres on that Mali held its long-delayed parliamentary election on Sunday despite an insurgency in its central and northern regions, concerns about coronavirus and the recent kidnapping of the main opposition leader? On Burundi, what are the comments and action if any of SG Guterres and USG Fleming on that Burundian member of Parliament Anglebert Ngendabanka threatens to physically eliminate (“crush the head” according to his words) journalists from the press? What of that the World Health Organisation (WHO) has not shared with member states information Taiwan has provided on the coronavirus including details on its cases and prevention methods, Taiwan's Foreign Ministry said on Monday (March 30), ratcheting up its complaints? And on that  "Hong Kong’s government said public broadcaster RTHK breached its charter by asking the World Health Organization about Taiwan’s membership, a move democracy advocates criticized as a new government effort to muzzle the press.  The Commerce and Economic Development Bureau said Thursday that Radio Television Hong Kong’s interview with WHO official Bruce Aylward violated the principle that Taiwan belongs to “one China.” A now-viral video of Aylward’s awkward exchange with the RTHK presenter put renewed focus on China’s efforts to prevent Taiwan from cooperating with the global health agency during the pandemic.  
 What is SG Guterres' comment and action if any of China sinking the Vietnamese fishing vessel? 

April 7-1a: What is the SG doing about that in Tunisia, migrants in an irregular situation residing in the Ouardia reception and orientation Centre, on Monday, staged a strike protesting living conditions in the Centre?  April 7-1a: On the UN system's development programs, what are the responses of SG Guterres and separately DSF Amina J.

What about the money your office bragged about from Honduras, given the proof JOH took money from El Chapo? Now in April, on Twitter stating that ""Twitter Safety @TwitterSafety We discovered many inauthentic accounts were accessing Twitter from a single IP range in Honduras, and heavily Retweeting the President’s account. We removed 3,104 accounts when it became clear a staffer created the fake accounts on the government’s behalf"? Any comment on the reported death of former Honduras president (also convicted of FIFA corruption) Rafael Callejas? And the new FIFA indictments in the EDNY court in Brooklyn, with respect to Qatar? 

April 7-2: On Cameroon, what are the comments or actions if any of SG Guterres after he took credit for one group's ceasefire in Southern Cameroon on (1) the government not being among 52 sign ons, and (2) that Monday, two civilians, a boy and a man were shot at the Mile 12 area in Bamenda by soldiers? Now, specifically, that Njafect Felix and Febkwi Henry have been shot dead in Nwa, Donga Mantung by Paul Biya's forces. The soldiers surrounded the entire village, harassed civilians and extorted money and valuables.

On that President Paul Biya's silence in the face of the coronavirus crisis is causing controversy in Cameroon. It was his Prime Minister who announced measures to combat the epidemic. Mr. Biya has not yet spoken, unlike his counterparts in neighboring countries? on the holding of an "election" in NW and SW during this Coronavirus crisis? Why did Guterres "take note" of Guinea vote, but not Cameroon? What is his comment and action if any on that the personal engagement of President Paul Biya in the fight against COVID-19 has been questioned by most Cameroonians who say he has been very absent compared to his colleagues accross the Continent. President Paul Biya apart from a recent tweet during which he called on citizens to be calm and respect government’s measures, has neither addressed the issue nor disbursed financial assistance promised by government to effectively fight COVID-19. Yet again,  immediately disclose whose question was cited by Stephane Dujarric in the in-person noon briefing as having been asked triggering condemnation of one-death bombing attributed, rightly or wrongly, to non Paul Biya forces? How is your approach not propaganda, censorship and a cover up of the Biya's government's mass killings?

April 7-2a: On China, what are the comments and actions if any of SG Guterres on that three Chinese human rights lawyers, Mr. Ding Jiaxi, Mr. Zhang Zhongshun and Mr. Dai Zhenya, have been held by authorities in a form of detention called Residential Surveillance in a Designated Location (RSDL) since they were arrested for attending an informal weekend gathering in the city of Xiamen. At the gathering, they discussed the situation of civil society and politics in China with other lawyers and activists? On that Taiwan's foreign minister Joseph Wu on Saturday slammed the Hong Kong government for threatening press freedom after one of its officials reprimanded a broadcaster for an interview in which a World Health Organization (WHO) official was pressed on Taiwan's membership.   "It's a disgrace to see this is happening to Hong Kong, a place that used to shine as a beacon of press freedom in East Asia," Wu said? 

April 7-3: On Guinea, what are the comments and actions of SG Guterres, beyond "taking note," on that opposition activists in Guinea say at least 10 people have been killed in street clashes during Sunday's controversial referendum on a new constitution.  Critics said the vote was a ploy by President Alpha Condé to stay in power beyond his mandate.  The deaths occurred in the capital, Conakry, where police fired tear gas to disperse demonstrators.  Opposition supporters attacked the police, burned polling centres and destroyed voting equipment.  Mr Condé, 82, insists the new constitution will bring about positive reforms, especially for women.  Many people say they are worried about the vote taking place during the coronavirus outbreak. 

April 7-3a: On the DRC and total lack of trust in the UN, what are the comment and actions of SG Guterres on reports that "civilians in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) are resisting the deployment of United Nations peacekeepers despite imminent attacks by rebel groups in the region.  The resistance is the aftermath of a fallout between residents in the town of Beni and the UN Mission for Stabilisation in the Congo (MONUSCO).  This after residents accused the peacekeepers of failure to protect them from repeated attacks" 

April 7-3b: On Qatar, what are the comments and actions if any of SG Guterres on that nine migrant labourers working on the stadiums for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar died in 2019, the “supreme committee” organising the event has announced, bringing the number of deaths on World Cup projects to 34, since construction began six years ago.  31 of the deaths, including the nine who died last year, are classified as “non-work related”, a term the supreme committee uses to describe deaths that largely occur off the worksite, most of which are attributed to sudden and unexplained cardiac or respiratory failure.  

April 7-4: On UN bribery, again, what are the comments or actions if any of SG Guterres on the March 11 appellate argument by convicted UN briber Patrick Ho of CEFC China Energy in the 2d Circuit Court of Appeals? Why has SG Guterres not amended his disclosure covering 2016 which omit payments from Gulbenkian Foundation which tried to sell its oil company to CEFC? Separately, again, why is there no disclosure of USG Melissa Fleming among the most recent public financial disclosures? Why none for Mark Lowcock? None for Henriette Fore? How can the UN raise money on this opaque basis? 

April 2-5: On corruption and Angola, on which you refused to answer yesterday, what are the comments and actions if any of SG Guterres on the Luanda Leaks exposure of Isabel dos Santos of Angola, and as Inner City Press has repeatedly asked, what are his comments and action on the repeated retweeting of Isabel dos Santos' denials by his close staffer Aguinaldo Baptista? After, for example, exposure of the corrupt urban development project near Luanda for which some 3,000 families were driven from their homes to make way for the development? And now after The Portuguese bank EuroBic has announced it will end its business relationship with Africa's richest woman, Isabel dos Santos.

What's been done for the victim(s)? and the Dec 9 sex abuse cases in CAR by Gabon, DRC and Morocco UN "peacekeepers, and the Dec g  about the Office of the Special Envoy for the Sahel, and the two more November 26, 3 pm cases of sexual exploitation in CAR by Cameroon troops in September 2019 (!)

April 6-8: On SG Guterres' Town Hall in Geneva, on which you refused Inner City Press' Dec 20 question, what is your summary of what SG Guterres said given that Inner City Press has now publishing more of it? Please explain SG Guterres' statement that interns should not (ever) be paid, and how this is not create unfair advantage for the most affluent?

April 6-9: As previously and repeated asked, where has UNSG Antonio Guterres been for the past week(s), and how much public money has he spent? Is he going directly to and from Pakistan? Previously from Addis? Or any stop overs? At what cost? Now, immediately disclose any and all costs to the UN including UN Security on the New York trip by Catarina Vaz Pinto Guterres on February 27 - March 1 (or longer).
