Controversy
BKSH & Associates has represented anti-democratic dictators and regimes in Zaire, Somalia, Nigeria and the Philippines. In 2003, it was internationally criticized for its representation of Ahmad Chalabi and the Iraqi National Congress for their support of the War on Iraq, which was primarily based on intelligence provided by the group which was later proved to be false.
