Former Nauru diplomat implicated in allegations relating to leased property in Bangkok, Thailand

 

The Government of Nauru issues this statement in response to media reports published in Bangkok, Thailand and other international media platforms relating to allegations of a property being leased in Bangkok in a residential compound popular for housing diplomats, by a former Nauru diplomat for illegal purposes.

 

The Government of Nauru understands the allegations are to the effect that the residence was used as a facility for illegal operations by foreigners, including Chinese nationals wanted by Beijing, for forging passports.

 

This statement is issued to clarify that the Government of Nauru did not sanction nor authorise the former consul-general, Onassis Dame to lease the alleged residence. The Government had absolutely no knowledge that Mr Dame had entered into any such lease.  

 

The Government of Nauru further confirms that any use of the official seal of the Government and reference to the Office of the Consul-General on any such lease of the alleged residence was neither sanctioned nor authorised. 

 

The Government of Nauru categorically refutes all allegations or implications of any association by the Government of Nauru to the occupants of the alleged residence in any way or any involvement or even knowledge of their alleged illegal activities.

 

The Government of Nauru is currently in the process of undertaking its own investigation into the matter as far as the allegations against the former consul-general is concerned.

 

The Government further notes that this matter is the subject of ongoing investigations in Bangkok and wishes to reassure the authorities concerned that the Government of Nauru stands ready to cooperate in whatever way that may be required to assist in such investigations.
