Addis Ababa, Oct 2 (UNI) Ethiopian authorities conducted an investigation into Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, former Ethiopian Health Minister and the current head of the World Health Organisation (WHO, over alleged financial wrongdoing and sexual misconduct in 2021, Bloomberg reported on Monday, citing internal documents of Ethiopian law enforcement bodies. The documents include bank information, handwritten witnesses’ statements and online correspondence between investigators, witnesses and banks. The Ethiopian financial intelligence unit also alleged that the ex-health minister harassed women and promoted those who accepted his sexual advances and punished those who did not. Bloomberg reported that these documents contained no proof confirming the accusations. The conflict has claimed tens of thousands of lives, displaced millions of people, and caused a dire humanitarian crisis in the country.
