UN GATE, July 3 –
The United Nations claims to
have a zero tolerance for
sexual exploitation by its
staff and peacekeepers, but
routinely covers up their
abuses including the rape of
children, withholding basic
information which was provided
to the Press under Ban Ki-moon
but not now under Antonio
Guterres.
Inner City Press, which
Guterres has banned from the
UN for 730 days as it asks
about these and his abuses, on
June 23 received from outraged
UN whistleblowers video of
sexual exploitation, they
said, in a white UN-marked
vehicle, here.
Now Instagram,
Facebook.
Inner City
Press named to the UN the two
men in the UN van: Michael
Antoine and Ray Milan. The UN
did not answer, see below. On
July 2, as Inner City Press
asked a question, here,
at the non-UN press conference
on the sex trafficking
indictment of Ghislaine
Maxwell (who held a UN press
conference in Dujarric's
room), this:
"the two staff
members have been placed on
Administrative Leave Without
Pay, pending the results and
conclusion of the ongoing OIOS
investigation." This was
(intentionally) misreported by
Xinhua and others as a strong
UN action, "discipline." It is
not, even by the UN's own
terms, in ST/AI/2017/1
and ALWOP Section 11"
Administrative leave
11.1 In accordance with staff
rule 10.4, a staff member may
be placed on administrative
leave with or without pay at
any time after an allegation
of suspected unsatisfactory
conduct and pending the
completion of the disciplinary
process. The period of
administrative leave may
continue until the completion
of the disciplinary process.
Such action is without
prejudice to the rights of the
staff member and does not
constitute a disciplinary
measure. A staff member
placed on administrative leave
shall be given a written
statement of the reason(s) for
such leave and shall be
informed of its likely
duration
Administrative
leave without pay
(ALWOP) 11.4 A staff
member may be placed on
administrative leave without
pay by an authorized official
when at least one of the
following conditions is met:
(a) There are reasonable
grounds to believe (probable
cause) that the staff member
engaged in sexual exploitation
and sexual abuse, in which
case the placement of the
staff member on administrative
leave shall be without pay;
(b) There are exceptional
circumstances that warrant the
placement of the staff member
on administrative leave
without pay because the
unsatisfactory conduct is of
such gravity that it would, if
established, warrant
separation or dismissal under
staff rule 10.2 (a) (viii) or
(ix), and there is information
before the authorized official
about the unsatisfactory
conduct that makes it more
likely than not (preponderance
of the evidence) that the
staff member engaged in the
unsatisfactory conduct.
And what about
the driver? And Guterres and
the crony he covered
up for? Guterres' UN is
corrupt.
On July 1
at noon, Guterres' UN
Spokesman Stephane Dujarric
said he would release the
results of the UN Office of
Internal Oversight Services
(OIOS) investigation in the
afternoon. By midnight it had
not happened.
Now Inner
City Press exclusively
published audio of OIOS' Ben
Swanson saying that one of
Guterres' Assistant
Secretaries General thrust his
hand down the pants of a
female staffer - and Guterres,
"a politician," said to cover
it up. Audio
here, here
on Patreon.
Guterres'
OIOS investigations are a
politicized scam. A fish rots
from the head - Guterres
covers up for his Assistant
Secretary Generals grabbing
crotches, and for whoring by
UNTSO staff. Guterres should
resign.
On July 1
AFP reported
of the UNTSO video that "It
was originally published on
June 23 on the Twitter account
of Inner City Press, a blog in
open conflict with the UN,
which has been denied access
"for 721 days" , said its
author Matthew Lee. The
account claimed a few days
later that this scene was
filmed in Tel Aviv (Israel)."
[Would they say that the
Rappler is "in open conflict"
with Duterte?]
The UN
after Inner City Press' video
went viral claimed they were
quickly investigating; a
French journalist even
(falsely) reported that
sanctions had already been
announced.
But now,
days after Inner City Press
identified to the UN the
nationality and then the names
of the men in the vehicle,
nothing. It is another cover
up by Guterres, this time funded
not only by taxpayers but also
IKEA and Pierre Omidyar.
Michael
Antoine has both Trinidadian
and US citizenship - and quite
a history. Inner City Press
previously asked the UN about
him (for example here).
and his sponsor / Godfather
Fadil Abdullah, since promoted
out to UNICEF in Sudan. Inner
City Press asked the UN about
him, again, in 2019, here
- no answer. UN cover ups.
Whistleblowers exclusively
tell Inner City Press this is
being covered up: Antoine is
"protected." He is known
in all the bars of
Jerusalem. The military
observers know him as the
jackass. That is his
nickname. Military
observers were told not to
place complaints about his
antics, that nothing would be
done. They would see his
UN vehicle out late in the
bars in Jerusalem. He would
drive with Ray to Haifa
Russian bars. Ray Milan
and Antoine would also use
prostitutes
regularly. Senior
management refuse to address
the misdeeds of civilian
staff. Antoine is part
of culture of civilian UN
staff who are undisciplined
and there is no
accountability.
Antoine had many Palestinian
girlfriends and this would
also cause problems for UN.
Guterres is to blame for this.
Inner City
Press has been encouraged by
UN staff to publish this now
to try to ensure that Guterres
doesn't once again cover up
for a "whoremonger." They say
Guterres should resign.
Inner City
Press will continue to demand
re-accreditation. It has been
two years, with no appeal, no
roadmap, pure corrupt
censorship.
Despite
the story now being reported
from Austria
to Israel
to Switzerland,
those let in from Al Jazeera
and other publications asked
nothing. We'll have more on
this. Watch this site.
