USAID-side confirmation and original MOU text still needed. |
| 2018-07-19 | Former DRC Prime Minister Samy Badibanga filed an OECD NCP specific instance against Miru Systems regarding voting-machine human-rights/corruption concerns. | https://mneguidelines.oecd.org/database/instances/ke0019.htm | confirmed | Official OECD NCP database entry confirms filing date and allegation framing. |

| 2025-02-11 | A-WEB press release (nttId=16438) publicly denied election-rigging allegations, stated ODA sub-project participation was limited to 8 countries (incl. Kyrgyz Republic and DR Congo), and asserted there were no follow-up exchanges/activities with USAID after the 2014 MOU. | https://aweb.org/eng/bbs/B0000013/view.do?nttId=16438&gubun=3&menuNo=300043 | confirmed (document existence) / disputed (substantive claims pending cross-check) | Primary A-WEB-side statement. Treat each substantive assertion as a verifiable claim, not a settled conclusion. |

| 2018-06-26 | Iraq Federal Supreme Court official-domain URL lead (news.4127) appears to document a ruling that manual recount and judge-substitution measures were constitutionally compatible. | https://www.iraqfsc.iq/news.4127/ | likely | Date/title/snippet observed via search index, but direct page capture is currently blocked by Cloudflare challenge; keep as verification-pending primary lead. |
