UN GATE, Nov 18 –
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 Nov 18 after Guterres again
refused to answer but
the IMF did answer, here,
before an amateur UN noon
briefing by quarantine
violator Stephane "French
Whine" Dujarric,
previously the face of UN lies
on cholera in Haiti, Inner
City Press submitted to deputy
Farhan Haq and tther yet
more questions (blocked by
Dujarric's screener Florencia
Soto Nino on +1
917 226 7816
and Dujarric
himself on +1
917 622 7652;
he directed
some favored
scribes to Eri
Kaneko on +1
917 208 8910,
who now blocks
Inner City
Press on
WhatsApp as
well)
including on the basis on
which it continues to be
lawlessly banned from entering
to ask questions in person.
Now also on the basis for
withholding publicly funded UN
video from the Press. 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, now on
screen Jennifer Confilio, Adam
Smook, Marisela Rivera and
others to be named taking
public money for a UN briefing
blocking email questions about
the UN's spread of Covid 19 - May 21

Inner City Press asked:
Nov 18-1:
Immediately respond to (as you
have to date refused to) and
explain this leaked audio,
exclusively published by Inner
City Press, of OIOS' Ben
Swanson here
What are the
comment and actions if any of
SG Guterres, on
accountability, now that
narcotics trafficking and
money laundering charges have
been dropped against Salvador
Cienfuegos Zepeda, former
Mexican Defense Secretary?
And, again, on those convicted
(presidential brother) and
prosecuted in the SDNY
Honduras / JOH case?
On deadline what
is the SG's (and separately
OIOS') position on the
impending promotion of Lily
Neyestani-Hailu in
UNESCO?
Also on OIOS on
which you have long refused to
answer: on UNECE and a gift
received, UNECE has told Inner
City Press to ask OIOS - so I
am asking you - what is the
status of that investigation
and the claim that the
Executive Officer held a gift
- what gift? What
outcome?
Specifically on deadline
respond to reports to Inner
City Press that discipline
against Robert Nowak of UNECE
was recommended, and state
what was done.
Same on Padula
and that censorship demand,
below - respond to Inner City
Press response to UNDT, sent
to most of you including SG,
DSG, OSSG, USG DGC, and MALU -
on deadline. Now,
explain why the Kennedy case -
retalition against a presumed
whistleblower about DSS - is
not even listed as a public
case, email went to the same
SG, USG OSSG and UNDT, etc,
yesterday. Specifically,
what are the SG's comments and
actions on the bombing of
Eritrea's airport?
On Egypt, what
are the comments and actions
if any of SG Guterres on that
a leading human rights group
in Egypt says that another
member of its team has been
detained by the security
forces - the second such
arrest this week. The
Egyptian Initiative for Human
Rights says that its director
of criminal justice Karim
Ennarah has been arrested
On Western
Sahara, what are the comments
and actions of SG Guterres on
that POLISARIO says "Moroccan
occupying forces began last
night to move a large number
of gendarmes and other
security forces in the region.
This will also mean the end of
the ceasefire agreement and
will start a new war
throughout the region." Now
Morocco announces that its
troops have launched an
operation Polisario says
that it would regard a
three-decade-old ceasefire
with Morocco as over if Rabat
moved troops or civilians into
the buffer zone."
Immediately
on the Padula UNDT case I have asked each of
you about since November 3 explain on what
basis the UN is now demanding censorship of
leaked evidence of UN sexual harassment, in a
UNDT order no less: "5. According to Mr. Lee’s
own account, he was denied access to the
hearing, so it is unclear to the Tribunal how
he came in possession of the relevant photos.
While Mr. Lee might not have taken the photos
himself, it should, however, be clear to him,
and whoever the photographer might be, that
any illegal recordings from the hearing cannot
be reproduced on a publicly accessible social
media platform such as Tweeter. Accordingly,
until Mr. Lee has demonstrated to the Tribunal
that all illegal recordings have been removed
from the public domain and destroyed, it will
hold Mr. Lee in contempt of court and prohibit
him from attending any of its future public
hearings. " But Inner City Press was
banned from the UN by Antonio Guterres before
this, for reporting on UN abuses, and its
question have not been answered. This one
should be - on deadline. And this:
Provide immediately SG Guterres and separately
UNECE's Sylver's responses to staff's
complaint, provided to and partially published
by Inner City Press, that "Dear Mr. Lee,
Chief of Management of UN-ECE (economic
commission of Europe), Mr. Michael Sylver,
took bribe from the private sector, a diamond
cell phone and a diamond necklace, and then
arranged their entry into UN business. It
seems he received bribe through another UN
officer. After a person working with that
officer complained that officer to Sylver
without knowing the actual taker, Sylver paid
his close friend to investigate. He sealed
that officer's mouth with blackmail. He also
spread rumors of the reporter's mental
illness. He and that officer were washed up in
the investigation." Please immediate describe
and comment on the roles of Monica Pronin and
Yuwei Li
Now, confirm or deny that OIOS found an
illegal gift, and as UNECE staff have asked be
done, asked UNECE.
What are the
comments and actions if any of
SG Guterres and separately USG
Fleming on that a Hong Kong
journalist appeared in court
Tuesday on charges of making
false statements while
obtaining information from a
vehicle database
What are the
comments and actions of SG
Guterres on that Mr. Karkara
at UN Women sent porn from his
UN computer and harassed
interns? Again, that happened
in the UNDT processing Nov 3
of Padula, and why was Inner
City Press blocked from
covering it? What is Guterres'
comment on UN staffer
Elkorany, with a proceeding
today in SDNY? Why is Guterres
covering up, and why is Inner
City Press still banned, even
by WebEx on which the IMF
allows it to ask questions?
Immediately
state why USG Lacroix did not go see or act
on the national staff strike during his
visit to UNAMID (Inner City Press has
published the staff's complaint) and whether
Lacroix will or will not quarantine for 2
weeks now, or is being allowed to live
outside of the NY duty station unlike other
UN staff.
State whether SG Guterres, as he told FOSS,
went to Massachusetts and if so whether he
will stay there are least three days for
testing (and be tested if and when back),
under new NY rules
On Cote d'Ivoire what are the comments
and actions if any of SG Guterres on that
the authorities in Ivory Coast have accused
the opposition of plotting against the state
after it announced it was setting up a
transitional government following a disputed
presidential poll.
Immediately explain, given the Amir Dossal
was on board of Epstein's procurer Ghislaine
Maxwell's Terramar Project and Inner City
Press has repeatedly asked you each about in
writing, how Spokesman Dujarric's Oct 30 on
camera statement is not aware of any other
UN connection to Epstein, beyond IPI, was
and is not a lie and cover up.
Again, why did Guterres not list
Gulbenkian, linked to CEFC China Energy, in
his disclosure covering 2016? What are
Guterres' comments on IPI and Epstein, why
would he not say why he left the board? Why
has he not quit Club of Madrid? Why was Amir
Dossal on Board of Terramar of Ghislaine
Maxwell?
Immediately state
what the follow up has been on
this and other cases below
left murky in the OIOS
report "An investigation
revealed that a staff member
at the Office of the 69th
President of the General
Assembly had been involved in
a range of activities that
included diversion of funds,
misuse of assets and
self-dealing in the discharge
of duties. The staff member
had used their position to
advance their personal
interests and those of third
parties, received undeclared
gifts, solicited funds that
were diverted to unofficial
accounts and engaged in
unauthorized outside
activities. OIOS transmitted
its findings to the Office of
Human Resources for
appropriate action and to the
Office of Legal Affairs for
possible referral to national
authorities." Inner City
Press reported on this, and
it's now in the Uganda press,
the Monitor etc
On Cameroon,
please immediately provide SG
Guterres' comments and actions
if any on that Maurice Kamto
has been held under house
arrest for three weeks
now. Given your
failure to answer that, now on
deadline comment on the
retriation / refoulement to
Cameroon (airport shut for
this) of asylum seekers and
refugees and what the UN is
doing to ensure no torture or
worse.
On SG Guterres'
Oct 12 request / demand for $3
billion amid global cutbacks,
explain this line: $1.9
million to deliver a new
global communications strategy
for the United Nations." How
much is being contributed by
IDEA and Pierre Omidyar, as
you have refused to answer so
far? How would this money be
spend and how does it relate
to USG Fleming's ongoing ban
on Inner City Press?
On Spokesman
Dujarric's Oct 9 statement
that SG Guterres left New York
TWO times during the pandemic,
other than the belatedly
disclosed one resulting in two
weeks faux quanantine with
maskless men and Secretary
Pompeo visit, when was the
other one? Was it too follow
by two weeks in the
"Residence"? Where was it
disclosed?
Given that not
only Cunillera but Michael
Antoine are being paid by
UNTSO after the
#UNsexploitation exclusively
exposed by Inner City Press,
why have you not only refused
all of Inner City Press'
questions but also failure to
update your now inaccurate
statements about leave WITHOUT
pay?
What is the UN's response to Inner
City Press' Sept 5 application for access to
briefings to ask these and other questions (as
it was allowed to do with the IMF on September
10), receipt of which was confirmed by MALU?
How can retirees who publish nothing be
allowed in, and Inner City Press which asks
(without answer) and publishes be excluded,
and it not be censorship? Now at noon on
September 15, having been told by Brenden
Varma to "ask MALU" for access codes to ask
question of new PGA Zolkan Bozkir, given the
history of SDNY-proved corruption by John Ashe
and Sam Kutesa, among others, this is a
request to teh spokesperson's office and all
recipients for those codes, before 4:30 pm.
Cc-ing Brenden Varma.
On UN staffer
Karim Elkorany, indicted in
SDNY for lying to FBI about
drugging and raping women
while working for UN in Iraq,
immediately state what the
outcome of the victim
complaining to the UN was -
and why Elkorany was back at
liberty in New Jersey.
AGAIN -
immediately explain UN Amir
Dossal being 1 of 5 on board
of Ghislaine Maxwell's
Terramar Project, and what has
been done about it.
Immediately
provide the if-asked
information on the new SEA
charged data dumped this
morning about allegations
against South Africa
"peacekeeper" in DRC and Gabon
"peacekeeper" in CAR, and --
As Inner City Press asked each
of you on August 17 without
answer, re new 2020 UN child
rape in South Sudan case data
dumped on the afternoon of
August 17 - immediately
provide all if-asked info of
the type previously provided
under Ban Ki-moon before SG
Guterres tried to cover
everything up, and
August 5, 9 am by Italy in
Lebanon, South Africa in DRC
and an UNSPECIFIED UN civilian
CHILD RAPE in DR Congo of July
28 of Gabon in CAR and Guinea
in DRC, on top of those of
July 23, 6 pm that you
immediately provide all
if-asked / further information
about the new UN sexual
exploitation allegations in
CAR against UN "peacekeeper"
from Gabon, and in DRC by
South Africa, on top of
unanswered UNTSO driver
question and those data dumped
on June 4 after 2:30 pm - the
twelfth batch this summer so
far, no answers, UNSG
complicit
On Honduras and
COVID corruption by the Juan
Orlando Hernandez
administration, what are the
comment and actions if any of
SG Guterres on the corruption
allegations here?
And again, what is the read
out of Guterres' panel sent to
Honduras?
Immediate comments on the leaked
audio of OSSC Chediek Inner City Press
published Aug 5 on SoundCloud here
(1 of 6)
On Ghislaine Maxwell and UNEP's
Lisa Svensson, who has been exposed in SDNY
has saying the UN doesn't care about sex
trafficking, what is SG Guterres' response?
as well as on the
June 22 admission by Sri Lanka
former PR Kohona that his
country led a campaign to get
Inner City Press ousted and
banned from the UN after it
reported on mass killings in
Sri Lanka, as Inner City Press
was also doing as to Cameroon
when your UN banned it now for
834+ days. What is the appeals
process? On
deadline."
