UN GATE,
Oct 6 – How corrupt is the
UN-world system under Antonio
Guterres, who bans the Press
which investigates? Today's
example is from the ITU, the
International
Telecommunication Union, whose
whistleblowers have, like
others, reached out to banned
Inner City Press:
"Lawfare in the
ITU / Pattern of Abuse of
Authority by the ITU
Secretary-General (Doreen
Bogdan-Martin or DBM) /
Cover-up of complaints or
investigations against her,
despite being "founded" or
"substantiated"
At present,
there seems to be a lawless
"no man's land" in ITU.
There are concerns of a
cover-up of a number of
serious cases against the
Secretary-General, who does
whatever she wants as the
checks-and-balances are
corrupted in covering-up her
behavior. How many open
cases are there against her -
this is a question the
Governing Body (the Council)
should need to know.
1. Anonymous Complaint
from April 2024.
There was an Anonymous
Complaint against DBM ...
It was sent to a number
of Missions in Geneva and has
been circulating amongst
them. One of the
Missions shared it with DBM,
who then had to go through the
"ceremony" of having it
assessed. It contained
many allegations against her
which are very serious,
ranging from cronyism, to
questionable movement of funds
and expenses, to abuse of
staff and creating a toxic
work environment. She
announced at an ITU Town Hall
that the allegations against
her were "unfounded" and
closed. There is
suspicion that there is a
cover-up - so common in UN
World under Guterres. A fish
rots from the head.
The "assessment
report" has never been
disclosed - does it *really*
say that the allegations are
unfounded? Per the
ITU Regulations and Rules for
Elected Officials, the "case"
must be submitted to the ITU
Governing Body (the Council) -
this hasn't been done." We'll
have more, including the
complaint, on this.
