The United Nations Human Rights Council has expressed concern that the crimes committed by late financier Jeffrey Epstein may amount to genocide. This revelation comes after the US government released millions of files related to Epstein’s case.
According to a report by the international media, a panel of independent experts working under the UN Human Rights Council stated that the documents reveal a systematic, widespread, and international nature of abuse against women and children, indicating the existence of a global criminal network.
The experts demanded a thorough, impartial, and independent investigation into Epstein and his powerful associates. They also expressed concern that redacting the identities of high-profile individuals in the documents has further traumatized the victims.
This reaction by the UN experts comes in the wake of the US government releasing 3.5 million pages of documents related to Epstein’s case under the Transparency Act. Critics argue that many documents are still withheld from the public.
Epstein was convicted of sex crimes against minors in 2008 but served only 13 months in prison. He took his own life in 2019 while facing federal charges.
In related news, Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s former partner, has been sentenced to over 20 years in prison for her role in sex trafficking.
The UN experts emphasized that ignoring the case would be a miscarriage of justice and that transparency and accountability are essential to fulfill the demands of justice.
