The British Association regulator has eliminated Prince Harry, accused of harassment by the president of an NGO that he founded in 2006 in Africa, but pointed out infractions of “all parties” involved in the management of the association.
At the end of March, the youngest son of King Carlos III had announced to renounce his role as sponsor of the SineBale Charitable Association, founded on Lesotho to combat AIDS in Africa, after a conflict with the president of the Board of Directors.
The latter, lawyer Zimbabwe Sophie Chandauka, was accused of bad government by members of the Board of Directors.
The case had appealed to the Public Accounts Agreement when Sophie Chandauka accused the Duke of Sussex of “harassment” and “intimidation”, in an interview with the Sky news channel. The prince had denounced “lies.” Both had seized the charity commission to resolve their disagreements.
“Serious repercussions on the reputation” of the association
In his conclusions published this Wednesday, August 6, the latter sends back all parties to all parties to let (the conflict) be carried out publicly. “But she claims to have found” no evidence “of” widespread or systemic intimidation or intimidation “or” misogyny or misogyny with respect to black women “in sentert.
On the other hand, she believes that “the inability of the administrators of the time to resolve internal disputes had serious repercussions on the reputation” of the association, and pointed out the “governance weaknesses” within the SinEbale.
According to her, the “lack of clarity” in the powers of all “favored the appearance of misunderstandings.”
The Commission transmitted to the NGO a plan for solving its governance problems and those called in particular to clarify “in writing” the role occupied by their sponsors, namely Harry and Prince’s Prince Du Lesotho, also resigned.
“In the future, he urges all parties not to lose sight of those who depend on the services provided by the association,” said its managing director David Holdsworth.
Sophie Chandauka satisfied the conclusions of the regulator
Quoted in a press release from the association, Sophie Chandauka, who was appointed for the presidency of the Association in 2023, says that he is “happy” to the conclusions of the regulator. The latter “confirms the governance concerns that I raised in private in February 2025,” he said.
However, he did not comment on the fact that Prince Harry was authorized by the accusations of harassment he had presented against her.
The role of Sentebale sponsor was one of the few beneficial organizations that Prince Harry had maintained after his explosive rest with the British monarchy in 2020, his exile in the United States and the loss of his real sponsorship.
The Duke of Sussex had founded the association with the desire to continue the work of his late mother, Princess Diana, very committed to the fight against AIDS.
