though they didn't finish the season completely undefeated, they were undefeated in germany. so end of one is the guy and the dsb poco optics. down report, it looks at bangladesh. a troops accused of murder and torture. now something is un peacekeepers, i'm painful. and so you sitting here again on data by the gentleman with c, w plus or emphasizing the award winning offer is available worldwide. for every language level. reading gentleman has to go get the green o you update the green innovations, super green and green check the holy grail of electron mobility and green

revolution global. so listen to all loud climate problems. it's victoria supplement topics suppressed of those channels. we've got new videos every friday tried to plan. it's a the, their cold wind countries to send into war and turmoil. un peacekeepers often the last bastion to protect civilians when states fail. successful peacekeeping requires the highest standards of conduct by all are united nations peacekeepers. both civilian and uniforms. but what do we really know about those who are sent to bring peace? we get some really printing useless troops as a pretty broad for the ones as well. with this investigation,

we can reveal that at least 2 countries, some peacekeepers that were implicated and torture and murder back home, and i barely can ask them all the people, extrajudicial giddings, including cold blooded candy and the un seemingly turned a blind eye. this is in tennessee written lodge, and nobody has done anything to stop that. the we're in the dash with nearly 6000 peacekeepers deployed world wide. it's one of the largest contributors of troops to un missions here up on good options you in training grounds. soldiers prepare for their next appointment as peacekeepers

or visit as carefully orchestrated. at no time. are we allowed to speak with any soldiers directly. instead, there's the pure yours answer our questions about un deployments. this is a matter of pride for us, and we have an almost people willing to contribute in a matter of pride, but also a lucrative one. un peacekeepers receive higher salaries than they do back home and the un reimbursed as countries for their equipment. according to government officials here, bangladesh has received more than $2500000000.00 us dollars over the past 23 years . as a mission over the past k. first, i can assure you that we will all of this be the quick can contribute to introduce keeping up for yourself in us. but the image, the generals, are so carefully trying to present during our visit is only one side of the story. as for years,

human rights groups and political leaders have warned of wide spread abuse by bangladesh and security forces, the exact entities that make up the peacekeeping forces. and one group is of particular concern. the rapid action battalion rad in a wheat force founded to fight terrorism and crime. in 2023, we revealed what the government continues to deny the rabbit murders of ducts and tortures with the complicity of the highest political levels. the after their student and rad officers are often sent on highly paid un deployments. as a former rob commander confirmed to us, he was personally involved in human rights abuses and later deployed to un mission . out of that come with as far as i know,

everybody goes to peacekeeping off to having solved and rob for months. we tried to verify his claim. military sources helped us get in touch with another former rob officer who is willing to talk to us been v. i am deployed as basically but yeah, it is my you an identity card. this is a sketch of a video confession demand recorded for us while on a mission in africa. we corroborated his identity, but his condition for talking to us was that he remains anonymous. why instead of being add to that prediction, bethany and i be able to weakness to multiple exposure to shield giddings, including cold blooded beginning of say about a young man after the bloodhounds. he's got some blood and brain fragments, especially on my uniform un peacekeeping missions, cannot have him amongst them. offices who may have been sponsible for these

kind of very serious abuses that defeats the purpose of peacekeeping. we went to copenhagen to meet a man who on behalf of the un, looked into human rights abuses by ben. good actually security forces. my name is james moultrie. i was a member of the committee against georgia and prophets here on the dish. motivate and the other committees experts were appointed by the us. the report on bangladesh published in 2019 stated they were gravely concerned about rob's abuses. the recommendation was that the former and current members of wrap should not be allowed to as to do a service in peacekeeping operations. so in 2019, there was

a clear recommendation to exclude members of rob. and what happened after the report was published. as far as we could tell, nothing, we checked officers, social media accounts and analyze hundreds of photos, and found more men who went from rob to peacekeeping. a pacified military personnel files and un deployment lists helped us identify more than 40 former rob officers who were deployed after the committee's report was published. the 3 of them worked for rob's instruments, intelligence spring, to even as deputy directors are sources confirmed that the intelligent swing supports killing operations and runs a secret network of torture cells hidden deep within many of rob's compounds there

cuz they will come a funny little sound sounds have equipment but won't avoiding radicals this method want to therapy. yeah, it can be used to make people talk with have a little bit of restaurant. so these men who are part of a unit that routine the tortures. why didn't anyone stop them from becoming peacekeepers? generally, it is up to the countries that send troops to select and that the majority of them but after several sexual abuse scandals involving peacekeepers, the un in 2012 implemented a new human rights policy. governments now have to certify that nominated soldiers have not committed any criminal offense or any violation of international human rights law or international humanitarian law. so for each of these 5 men who are most likely implicated in serious abuses, bangladesh must have signed this form. what is happening right now is that they are

asking an abusive government to then decide which offices are abusive or not. now seems to be know that there is no accountability, mckenna them, or even an interest in holding people to accomplish human rights violations. that process is not like confronted with our findings, un peacekeeping in the our roads. we do not have the resources to review the information of all personnel deployed. and the vast majority of troops perform well . just think with us with seemingly able to circumvent the policy might other countries be doing the same in london, we meant this woman who's been exposing human rights abuses for years. and for us as harrison, i run the international truth and justice project, which is an organization that collects evidence around the end of the war post for violations, for lanka. her laptop is full of photos and testimonies that document the

atrocities committed during 3 long. cuz decades one simple more person alerted us to this photo, the man pointing out the bodies is generally sure vendor of sofa. she commanded an instant as to unit that the un says committed war crimes. never the last 10 years later, the 3 months in government promoted shift entre silva to a top position of arm each. as such, he was responsible for the deployment of hundreds of peacekeepers. following an international outcry, the un announced it would suspend she long an army deployments except for the worst suspension that would expose un operations to serious operational risk. so the one left a door open and indeed almost nothing changed. the one's own

figures showed that in 2019 sri lanka, sense 687 peacekeepers. and one year after silver's appointment, it was still sending 665 trips. can you imagine would that slight for victims of the civil war if the violation sent to see that this is in tennessee written lodge and nobody has done anything to stop that? if i sent in to you, and i probably wouldn't let this be this frank and to say we get some really pretty useless troops as a pretty brutal ones as well. during our research, we talked to many sources within the u. n. but this former official in berlin was the only one willing to go on the record. my name is angela gilmore. i was the you and assist infected reynolds, the human rights from 2016 to 2009. as such,

g is 1st hand knowledge of what happens when the u. n. pressure countries to exclude a legend, human rights abusers one country that was really important, literally said okay, we're going to pull out or together under you. and 2nd general at that time to go basic to that country in that sense. apologize of that as they otherwise, like for you, empty supervision is, would have collapsed if you wouldn't tell us which country and stressed that the un does what it can. but it's testimony points to one thing. when it comes to peacekeepers, the u. n. is seemingly susceptible to blackmail. there's a reason for this face with often dudley emissions. many governments have posed their troops out of peacekeeping. operations are leaving the supplying of troops to countries like bangladesh, pockets on egypt or china, many of which are known to have

a piece of security forces. there's like situations where literally thousands of people could be killed in the absence of un peacekeepers, which when you have to balance things, perhaps sending 2 or 3 bad apples is or less bad option. then thousands of people getting killed. that's quite a shocking admission, isn't it? sending 2 or 3 bad apples. i mean, let's look at what the bad apples from shalanda has done. it will obviously be very difficult to face in the piece that such a mission would create. wish a cat who goes abroad is a piece of paper because they go in on name the most so special about the state will see from donna is made from contains cassava

and yeah, and it's nice and with lots of different things. i think mostly in the afternoons, so that's by evening suggestion master can please follow us on the calendar and see how the country celebrates the sinus days of feedback on dw icons of the automobile is turning the w golf or the car has been sold worldwide. no other car has remained so to me, so we celebrate it's story and new to the future. will the goals into the world are really the euro mac in 60 minutes on d w. we
