U.N. Investigates Allegations Against Troops in Haiti The United Nations is investigating allegations against peacekeepers in Haiti involving two cases of sexual abuse of minors, the organization's spokesman said Monday. The allegations were made against United Nations officers in Port-au-Prince, the capital, and in Gonaives. The officers have been removed from their duties while a team from New York investigates the allegations, said Martin Nesirky, the spokesman, adding that the leadership of the organization was "outraged" by the allegations. He declined to identify the nationality of the officers involved. There are more than 3,500 United Nations peacekeepers in Haiti.
