Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesman for the United Nations Secretary-General, said on Friday that, contrary to previous reports in The Jerusalem Post and the Financial Times, the Secretary-General did not say that UN special rapporteurs are "out of control"; he said that they are independent actors outside the Secretariat's control.
