In response to the interim report of the Volcker investigation into the UN Oil-for-Food scam,
Kofi Annan has suspended two people--Benon Sevan, the former head of the OFF program, and Joseph Stephanides, head of the UN Security Council Affairs Division--pending further investigation and an appeals that will likely go on forever.
Sevan and Stephanides were told they would receive a letter this week "laying out the charges against them," which will allow them to defend themselves before U.N. disciplinary bodies in what will likely be a long appeals process, he said.
And if there's one thing that corrupt unelected bureaucrats fear it's... receiving a letter. And. Um. Disciplinary bodies. Scary buggers them disciplinary bodies.
