In
UNMIK Sex Abuse Corruption of
Arnold Sex Toys Triggered
Light Penalty Now Worsening
By Matthew

UN GATE, Nov 22 –
Antonio Guterres is killing
the UN, including with his
failure in Cameroon and
elsewhere and his lawless
censorship of Press, now at
1994 days. He's put the UN in
the Press Freedom Tracker, here.
And so on 3 July 2019, this
video, and this.
On March 14,
2022, this: "Dear
Matthew, I would like to
share with you the latest
update in relation to the
investigation for sexual
abuses and frauds related to
UNMIK CMS, Ms. Sandi
Arnold.
As per attached
UNDT judgement. Ms. Arnold,
has been suspended for three
months with ALWP."
And, long
after Inner City Press began
exposing this particular
corner of UN corruption,
banned from the UN by corrupt
UNSG Guterres, Arnold was
subject to the lightest form
of discipline, a one year
course. Even then, she sought
anonymity, and "Contends that
the present matter could
reflect on her private life
and sexual orientation, posing
a distinct threat to her in
her resident country (Turkey)
and in her duty station
(Pristina)." UNDT ruling now
put online by Inner City Press
on its DocumentCloud here.
Then on Oct 4,
2023, "8. In support of the
withdrawal of her request for
an oral hearing, the Applicant
largely reiterated her
position during the CMD that
“there is no real dispute as
to the facts underlying the
contested decision, although
there may be differences on
interpretation and in the
legal conclusions drawn from
the facts”. She added that her
decision in this regard is
also motivated in part by her
concerns over the
confidentiality of the
process."
What a
joke. After finding out all of
her testimony would be heard
in public. If there was
confidentiality needed to
protect witnesses, the judge
would hold in camera
proceedings.
On November 7,
Arnold's appeal was denied in
its entirety, with the Appeals
Tribunal noting she "gifted a sex toy
to Ms. L. A." but not
addressing the secrecy and
banning of Press. The UN's
scam "justice" system is just
that, with the Press banned.
In later
November, more sent to
LaCroix, Saunders and others
soon to be named, while no
answers to written questions
by the UN Spokespeople
(Dujarric citing danger to
Fortune magazine, while
servicing propagandists by
WebEx), this:
"In the shadow of
Sandi Arnold's long role as
Chief Mission Support (CMS),
UNMIK is now facing a more
difficult situation with the
new management. People were
hopeful for positive changes
when the new SRSG arrived and
Sandi Arnold left. However,
instead of one new leader,
there were three. One of them,
Mr. Georges Fahry, got a
promotion that seemed strange,
going from a P3 PIO officer to
a P4 special assistant without
a proper hiring process. This
raised questions about
fairness and
transparency. Since
Fahry came in, he has been
using the SRSG's authority to
create a fearful and
controlling atmosphere. He
uses tactics like intimidation
and division, making it clear
that if you challenge him,
you're challenging the SRSG.
Fahry's influence even extends
to hiring his spouse without
following normal
procedures. Another
figure, Stephane Vazele, adds
to this troubling situation.
He was chosen based on
personal connections, and his
leadership style is described
as strict, demanding complete
obedience from staff. He
threatens consequences like
CSR, downsizing, and firing
for anyone who disagrees. This
kind of atmosphere is not
common in the UN.
Vazele's lack of experience in
managing a field mission and
questionable qualifications
raise concerns about how UNMIK
leaders are chosen. The
recruitment process seems to
ignore experience and
qualifications, favoring
personal connections and
loyalty. Recent hirings, like
a P4 staff with no experience
being quickly promoted, show
this trend. Only those in
selected offices have a chance
to hire new staff, deciding
who gets recruited. This
new way of managing has led to
the resignation of women in
senior positions, like the
Chief Gender Unit, Chief PIO,
Information Analyst, and Chief
Operations Management. Dissent
seems to lead to losing your
job, following what looks like
a deliberate management
policy. Now, success is
measured by things like social
media popularity and spending
a lot of UN money on events.
This spending, similar to
Sandi Arnold's controversial
projects, adds to the
challenges. Complaints
about these issues have no
safe place to go. The people
in charge, like CMS, Chief of
Staff, Conduct, and
Discipline, are accused of
corruption. Fear of
retaliation is now a proven
tactic, leaving UNMIK staff
feeling helpless. This
situation is not just bad;
it's like a descent into a
difficult reality where one
person's rule is more
important than being open,
where loyalty is valued more
than merit, and where
disagreeing voices are
silenced in a fearful
environment. UNMIK urgently
needs a solution.
Fat Chance.
