not to resign
Radio Australia Nov 21, 2000 UN investigator in East Timor agrees not
to resign
The UN chief investigator for serious crimes in East Timor has agreed
not to resign after last minute pledges by the body's administrators to
supply his unit with desperately needed resources.
Oivind Olsen heads 30 investigators in the UN's Special Crimes Unit in
Dili, gathering evidence on crimes committed during East Timor's
independence-ballot violence last year.
An official says Mr Olsen tendered his resignation late last week out
of frustration at chronic under-resourcing of the unit, which was
crippling its capacity to prosecute and undermining efforts at
reconciliation.
