UN GATE, Nov 1 -- Stephane Dujarric, the lead spokesman of UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres, and now Guterres' Global Communicator Melissa Fleming have joined their boss in personally covering up child rapes and sexual abuse by UN personnel, including recently a child rape by a UN "peacekeeper" from Paul Biya's Cameroon in DR Congo.

  Even while they and OIOS Ben Swanson purport to care - and even answer questions - on the UN's cover up for Burundian and Gabon rapes in CAR in 2017, they have adopted corrupt Guterres' solution going forward: cover up the cases in advance. Rough up and ban the Press which asks, leave inside only insiders who ask why they can't use the UN escalator instead of walking one or two flights of stairs, and refuse to answer written questions. Their UN is dying - and taking young victims with it.

 On the afternoon of October 31 the UN data dumped yet another case of child sexual abuse by a Cameroon "peacekeeper" in CAR, while still refusing to answer questions of a child rape from October 21, and yet more cases from October 28. Guterres' UN has become a racketeering conspiracy to cover up - and in fact facilities - child sex trafficking, sexual abuse and child rape.  On October 31 sent this question, without any response of any time, to the individuals named below: "On UN sexual exploitation and abuse - alleged - this is a request that you immediately provide the "if asked" information about the case of sexual abuse of a child alleged against a Cameroon UN "peacekeeper" in CAR cursorily data dumped on October 31 at 1:30 pm as well as previously requested without response about the child rape and sexual exploitation by UN "peacekeepers" from Cameroon and South Africa the UN cursorily disclosed on the afternoon of October 28 -    Requesting again that you immediately provide the "granular" information that was promised at the noon briefing to correspondents who barely ask or publish about this topic. What is being done for the victims? Also, again, what is Guterres' answer, which you refused to provide after banned Inner City Press asked you and others in writing on the morning of August 19 that you "immediately provide all if-asked and additional information about the new allegation of SEA announced of child rape by a Cameroonian "peacekeeper" in DR Congo, and why this has been left so long UNanswered - and also why previously published charges are no longer in the data to which UN Peacekeeping Conduct and Discipline points, including what if being done for these victims and any steps taken to avoid this constant repetition of abuse despite the SG's ostensible commitments. Again, are new allegations being buried elsewhere on the data page? Inner City Press is asking in writing because banned from the noon briefings and any follow up questions, now for more than a year. On August 24 Inner City Press re-applied for admission to cover the UNGA high level week; on August 30 it was summarily rejected, with no or only Kafka-esque reasoning. This week, as before none of Inner City Press' written questions, including on Honduras and Cameroon, have been answered. This is a request that you immediately confirm receipt of these questions and requests. -Matthew Russell Lee, InnerCityPress.com"

 The above was sent, without response for sixteen hours and counting but their knowledge confirmed as a matter of law, to among others: ag [at] un.org, dujarric [at] un.org, haqf [at] un.org,  David Kaye, amina.mohammed [at] un.org, marialuiza.viotti [at] un.org, jiang1 [at] un.org, melissa.fleming [at] un.org, gilles.michaud [at] un.org, pozenel [at] un.org, zoe.paxton [at] un.org, peter.reid [at] un.org - the communicator brought in from McKinsey with public money while Guterres said he had no money (this was prior to taking $50,000 in presumpively El Chapo's money from Honduras government of Juan Orlando Hernandez, UNanswered.)

 There is also, data dumped on October 28 without if-asked information, another case of sexual exploitation by a South Africa "peacekeeper" in DRC, and unanswered DRC questions.

  On the afternoon of October 21 the UN cursorily disclosed child rape and sexual exploitation by UN "peacekeepers" from South Africa, Indonesia, Mauritania and again Cameroon, in DRC and Central African Republic. Only the most scant information was provided and Inner City Press the same day and again the next day asked in writing for the if-asked information the UN has in its possession and provided to the Press even under Ban Ki-moon - but not under Guterres.

Now Guterres, his deputy Amina J. Mohammed, Dujarric and his deputy Farhan Haq, Melissa Fleming and others yet to be named have refused two days to answer or even acknowledge Press questions about their UN's new

  And no answers, despite Dujarric's previous on camera commitment / lie about answering Inner City Press' questions. Video here.

 Worse, Dujarric repeated and expanding on the lies on September 19, video here, claiming that Inner City Press is in touch with UN Media Accreditation - while Melissa Fleming has not answered a single letter and has banned the active Press - 83,000 Twitter followers and counting, covering the courts and #6ix9ine and Halkbank and OneCoin and Doe v. ICE and the Honduras narco regime Guterres also covers up for - from entering to cover the UNGA week.

   Guterres' UN sent this out:
