SDNY Courthouse,
Sept 8 – UN former staff
member Karim Elkorany was
arrested then freed on
$500,000 bond on September 2,
2020 in connection with
drugging and raping women in
Iraq while working for the UN
in 2016, then allegedly lying
to the FBI about it in 2017.
A
superseding indictment
belatedly unsealed on October
29, 2020 said Elkorany raped a
UN contractor, in the US and
Dohuk, Iraq. And still the UN
did nothing.
On May 24, 2022
Elkorany pleaded guilty:
"KARIM ELKORANY, a former
communications specialist with
the United Nations (“UN”) in
Iraq, pled guilty before
United States District Judge
Naomi Reice Buchwald to
sexually assaulting an
internationally protected
person and making false
statements to cover up another
sexual assault. In
connection with the plea,
ELKORANY also admitted that he
drugged and/or sexually
assaulted seventeen additional
victims."
He raped while
employed by the UN - AND THE
UN DID NOTHING. In fact, the
UN helped him flee and do it
again.
On September 3,
Elkorany sought a long delay
in sentencing - the day after
another UN-linked fraudster,
Cary Yan, has his indictment
unsealed. See a pattern here?
Elkorany's letter: "Our firm
represents defendant Karim
Elkorany in the
above-captioned action. We
write to request an
adjournment of Mr. Elkorany’s
sentencing, which is currently
scheduled for September 29,
2022."
On September 6 in
a partially redacted letter
the US opposed, quoting
Victim-2 that she mentally
prepares for all court dates
in this case and is hopeful
that the sentencing will give
her some relief." To seal /
redact about Victim-1, the
prosecutors cite US v. Amodeo
on "venerable common law
exception to the presumption
of access to judicial
documents."
On September 8,
Elkorany's lawyer reiterated the
request to delay sentencing -
and included in the letter the
the Probation Department in its
pre-sentencing report is
recommending a sentence of 15
years. Watch this site.
The case is US v.
Elkorany, 20-cr-437 (Buchwald).
