VISUAL INVESTIGATION-The U.S. army veteran and the mystery Boeings flying Sudan's war routes
July 15 (Reuters) - Reuters published a visual investigation on Wednesday showing that companies controlled by U.S. military veteran Steven Shaulis operated a fleet of aging Boeings that flew to logistics hubs used by the Rapid Support Forces during the Sudan war.
To the outside world, Shaulis, a 63-year-old U.S. Army Special Forces veteran, is the head of the Singapore-based company CADG, a global firm that has held U.S. and United Nations contracts for decades.
Behind the scenes, Reuters found, Shaulis-controlled firms have operated at least three aging Boeing aircraft flying to key logistics hubs used by the Rapid Support Forces, the Sudanese paramilitary group accused of atrocities in the Darfur region.
Reuters found no evidence that Shaulis or any of his companies have been sanctioned or face allegations of wrongdoing from authorities.
