In December 2001 the United Nations asked a panel of experts to investigate the illegal exploitation of natural resources and other forms of wealth of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The panel’s report was issued in October 2002. In it they said George Forrest had long-standing ties to the establishment in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and described him as a member of the elite network of Congolese interests. In 2003, the United Nations published a new report on the illegal exploitation of natural resources. The panel’s 2003 report officially dismissed his previous critics regarding George Forrest.
