Navi Pillay on the Nobel Peace Prize and International Justice

So, apart from those criticisms, I have not been sanctioned in any way for all the judicial decisions. But you mentioned the Commission on Israel and Palestine and East Jerusalem set up by the United Nations Human Rights Council. For that, yes, we were briefed authoritatively by UN Security that we were being targeted as well. I as the chair and

My other two commissioners. A, that they will deny us visas. We have to go into the United States to deliver our report before the General Assembly, that that may be cut off. And sanctions, like they sanctioned the special rapporteur, Francesca Albanese, for her work on the situation in Gaza. And then I received information reliably that, in fact, the White House staff.

Received instructions to prepare the papers to sanction me and the other two commissioners. And so we then were advised by many people, including judges of the ICC, to whom I went to see them to see how the sanctions were affecting them. It's very serious. You can't use your credit card because the domain server are in the US. Then they also targeted and closed these bank accounts of the children of these judges.

I noticed that after I stepped down, so just to finish that, then we took, I had to take steps to safeguard my savings. And so did the other two. So we came close, but apparently there was a health scare, and staff were asked not to come in to work for about two weeks. And by the time they returned, I had resigned, I and the other three commissions. Now, we didn't resign, we retired.
