The United Nations say its investigations into UN peacekeeper abuses in Central African Republic are being hampered.
MINUSCA is however determined to hold to account perpetrators of such acts.
“The investigation is complicated by the numerous nationalities of police and military personnel involved in the operations launched in the ‘PK5′ area of Bangui on 2 and 3 August, MINUSCA will not publish preliminary findings that may be prejudicial to the ongoing investigation,” the UN Spokesperson Vannina Maestracci said.
The latest on the investigations is that the UN officials have received new allegations that peacekeepers in the C.A.R sexually abused three young women.
Maestracci told reporters Wednesday that the events took place in recent weeks and that the victims’ families had notified the mission on 12 August.
“These new allegations concern a report that three young females were raped by three members of a MINUSCA military contingent,” said Maestracci.
