[JURIST] In the wake of Wednesday's second interim report of the UN's Independent Inquiry Committee into the Oil-for-Food Program [IIC homepage] chaired by former Federal Reserve head Paul Volcker, the UN has issued a charge letter to Under-Secretary-General Dileep Nair [Wikipedia biography], head of the UN's Office for Internal Oversight Services (OIOS), alleging improper use of funds. The IIC alleges that Nair used funds from the now defunct Iraqi Oil-for-Food Program [program website] to pay a special assistant, despite the fact the assistant did not perform any work for the program. The UN Staff Council in New York also alleges improper behavior, prompting a possible full external investigation of his tenure at the UN. The UN News Center has more.
