Govind Bandi and Gopal Shah, contrary to Mr. Martin’s letter, told the Post on the record that they were approached by him for a meeting. At least two people met by Mr. Martin told the Post that he referred to the CPA provision which gives the United Nations a monitoring role. Two additional sources told two separate Post reporters that Mr. Martin said the transitional justice process took a negative course ever since the two transitional justice bodies were formed instead of one. The Post made multiple attempts to reach Mr. Martin the night before the story but was unable to reach him.
