UN GATE, Aug 13 –
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 771 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.
Then Inner City Press named
the third man, the driver, as
Juan Carlos Cunillera. Only
after that was Cunillera put
on leave without pay.
On August
12 Inner City Press
exclusively reported that
Cunillera has been restored to
full pay and posted the order
on DocumentCloud here.
Immediately afterward,
Cunillera requeste and the UN
granted the disappearance of
the order, on which corrupt
Guterres' equally corrupted
spokesman Dujarric refused to
answer Inner City Press'
question. The Order is off the
UN web site, replaced by this:
"On 12 August
2020, the Applicant filed a
request for confidentiality,
stating that due to the
sensitive nature of his case,
publicity that it received and
potential prejudice that it
posed for him, his name and
other personal data should not
be reflected in the Tribunal’s
order. Deliberations 5.
Pursuant to art. 36.1 of the
Rules of Procedure of the
Tribunal, all matters that are
not expressly provided for in
the rules of procedure shall
be dealt with by decision of
the Dispute Tribunal on the
particular case, by virtue of
the powers conferred on it by
article 7of its statute. 6. In
light of the above and
considering the particulars of
this case, the Tribunal finds
it appropriate to grant the
request for confidentiality."
Too late,
sleaze bags. Guterres Must Go.
In today's UN it
is fine to use a publicly
funded vehicle to drive around
UN staff having sex. From the
decision: "On 21 May 2020,
the Applicant transported a
non-United Nations person in
an UNTSO vehicle. While the
Applicant was driving, another
male United Nations staff
member, in the back seat,
engaged in acts of a sexual
nature, in a public and
visible manner in the vehicle.
By so doing, the Applicant
failed to use the United
Nations vehicle only for
official purposes; his conduct
could bring the United
Nations’ reputation into
disrepute; b. During the
interview with OIOS, the
Applicant knowingly provided
false information to
investigators, thereby failing
to cooperate with the OIOS
investigation; and c. The
unsatisfactory conduct of
failing to observe the
standards of conduct expected
of an international civil
servant is of such gravity
that it would, if established,
warrant separation or
dismissal under staff rule
10.2(a)(viii) or (ix)." Inner
City Press has placed this
decision, typical of UN
corruption, on DocumentCloud here.

Previously
multiple UN sources
contacted banned Inner City
Press with the name of the
driver: Juan Carlos Cunillera.
Here
is in on an UNTSO procurement
form;
he previously worked for the
UN in Haiti, where sex
exploitation morphed into the
killing of 10,000 Haitians by
the UN.
On July 17
Guterres' Deputy Spokesman
Farhan Haq, hired through
nepotism due to his UNDP
economist father, lied on
camera. He said the leave -
with education grants and
insurance - of two of the
three men in the 4x4 was "fast
action." He did not mention
that he has ignored and
censored written questions
from Inner City Press about
the third man - the actual
procurer.
Inner City Press
continued reported: the
procurement driver Juan Carlos
Cunillera comes from the
Dominican Republic - a member
of the UN Security Council.
After more
than two weeks on July 27
Farhan Haq hours after Inner
City Press was removed from
the UN's briefing on COVID-19
and Cities whispered in his
briefing, with no follow up by
those allowed in, that a third
man - who he did not name -
was also put on leave without
pay by UNTSO. Now Cunillera is
restored to full pay - no word
from the UN as of this
exclusive report. We will have
more on this.
On July
13, 14 and 15 Inner City Press
in writing asked Guterres, his
deputy Amina J. Mohammed and
spokespeople, including Sophie
Boudre and Julie Hylton at
UNTSO on deadline: "Inner City
Press is reliably involved the
driver was Juan Carlos
Cunillera of UNTSO. Given his
presence, and other
irregularities, immediately
explain why there are only two
suspended and not three, and
how this is not a cover
up. ALSO IMMEDIATELY
DESCRIBE AND EXPLAIN, AS TO
THIS CASE, the UN's "Carlog"
technology, "used for driver
authentication (swipe card
used in the Carlog device
before ignition)." It is
important you answer about the
UN's publicly funded (but
defrauded) Carlog technology
and its role in this cover
up."
But the UN
refused to answer. Now Inner
City Press from multiple
sources can report that it was
Ray Milan who used his ID to
start the UN vehicle - but
that, contrary to policy, Juan
Carlos Cunillera took the
wheel. They were, so to speak,
taking turns. And Antonio
Guterres is covering this
up. He should resign.
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,
then was denied bail on July
14), 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"
Inner City
Press has 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.
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.
