EU Fundamental Rights Agency: Director Morten Kjaerum involved in fraud scandal

The Danish Institute for Human Rights (DIHR), which was headed by Morten Kjaerum prior to his current posting as Director of the EU Fundamental Rights Agency, is currently at the focus of a major corruption scandal. Allegedly, the Institute has used fraudulent accounting practices to conceal that it spent over three million Danish crowns on projects that never existed. As the fraud is said to have taken place during Mr. Kjaerum’s tenure as the Institute’s director, a Member of the European Parliament has now called on the EU to take a close look at the accounting of the EU Fundamental Rights Agency.
