UN-backed Haiti mission implicated in four cases of sexual abuse

United Nations investigations substantiated four allegations of sexual exploitation and abuse last year against a UN-backed ​security force in Haiti, the majority of whose staff are ‌Kenyan troops, according to Reuters.

A UN report, dated February 16, on the investigations was first reported by Haiti's AyiboPost on Thursday.

"All the allegations were found to be substantiated by investigations conducted by the Office ​of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights," ​the report said without detailing the outcome of the ⁠cases.

It said it had referred the results to the force's leaders ​for "appropriate investigation and remedial measures." A spokesperson for the force declined to ​comment.
