UN peacekeepers in Central African Republic were accused once again of sexual abuse after fresh allegations emerged this week, Reuters reported.
CAR's UN mission, known as MINUSCA said on Tuesday that it was "investigating fresh allegations concerning both sexual exploitation and abuse and other misconduct by U.N. Peacekeepers and international forces in Bangui."
The new reports come only weeks after the UN was accused of failing to act on previous allegations of child sexual abuse in 2013 and 2014.
"The mission continues to investigate each and every allegation of a misconduct," MINUSCA was further quoted by Reuters as saying.
"A fact finding mission is currently underway in this regard."
