全球最大港口运营商之一的负责人已被解职，此前杰弗里·爱泼斯坦相关文件曝光了他与这名已定罪性犯罪者的关联程度。
周五，迪拜政府媒体办公室在一份声明中宣布，已任命新的董事会主席和公司首席执行官，接替苏尔坦·艾哈迈德·本·苏莱曼（Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem）——这位中东最杰出的商业人物之一。该公司由迪拜统治家族监管，在海湾地区及全球运营港口。
本·苏莱曼自2007年起担任DP世界董事长，并于2016年被任命为联合董事长兼首席执行官。
声明中未提及本·苏莱曼的姓名。哥伦比亚广播公司新闻已联系DP世界请求置评。
在司法部最新公布的爱泼斯坦文件中，本·苏莱曼与爱泼斯坦的关系被广泛报道。据司法部发言人表示，本·苏莱曼的名字在文件中出现超过4700次。
在本·苏莱曼发给爱泼斯坦的一封电子邮件中，他问道：”你在哪里？你还好吗，我喜欢那段折磨视频。”在另一段电子邮件交流中，爱泼斯坦称本·苏莱曼”是我真正意义上最信任的朋友之一”，并补充道”我非常珍惜我们共度的时光”。
“谢谢你，我的朋友，我正在新样本上，有一位100%纯俄罗斯女性在我的游艇上，”本·苏莱曼回复爱泼斯坦。
文件显示，两人的关系可追溯至21世纪初，涉及相互提供商业建议，并安排与包括前以色列总理埃胡德·巴拉克、安德鲁·蒙巴顿-温莎（前安德鲁王子）以及现任土耳其大使的投资者汤姆·巴拉克在内的有影响力人士会面。

其他电子邮件往来显示，两人讨论了不同的按摩师以及可能访问爱泼斯坦的岛屿。一段交流显示，本·苏莱曼帮助安排爱泼斯坦的一名按摩师在土耳其一家豪华酒店接受培训，以”获得更好的体验”。
在一封来自经过编辑的发件人的电子邮件中，发件人写道：”杰弗里想知道你今天想什么时候在纽约接受按摩。”爱泼斯坦在他称为”克林顿论坛”的活动后提出带他去他的岛屿。本·苏莱曼询问了2005年9月15日至20日的安排，而当年的年度克林顿全球倡议会议正是在9月15日至17日举行。
周二，民主党众议员罗·科哈尼在众议院发言中宣读了司法部在最新发布的爱泼斯坦相关文件中最初隐去的六名”富有、有权势的男性”姓名，其中包括本·苏莱曼。此后这些隐去内容被移除，六人的姓名均已公布。
科哈尼引用的文件及哥伦比亚广播公司新闻审查的内容似乎并未直接暗示这六名男子涉及任何犯罪，科哈尼也未指控他们有任何特定的刑事不当行为。
此前，当被问及爱泼斯坦与本·苏莱曼之间的通信时，DP世界拒绝置评。
CEO of Dubai’s largest port replaced after ties to Epstein revealed

The head of one of the world’s largest port operators has been removed from his position, following revelations from the Jeffrey Epstein files about the extent of his ties to the convicted sex offender.
On Friday, Dubai’s government media office announced in a statement that it had appointed a new chairman of the board of directors and a new CEO of the company, DP World, replacing Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, one of the Middle East’s most prominent business figures. The company, which is overseen by Dubai’s ruling family, operates ports in the Gulf and all over the world.
Bin Sulayem has served as chairman of DP World since 2007 and was named joint chairman and CEO in 2016.
The statement does not mention bin Sulayem by name. CBS News has reached out to DP World for comment.
Bin Sulayem’s ties to Epstein were well publicized during the newest release of Epstein files by the Justice Department. According to a department spokesperson, bin Sulayem’s name appears in the files more than 4,700 times.
In one email from bin Sulayem to Epstein, he asked Epstein, “where are you? are you ok , I loved the torture video.” In a separate email exchange, Epstein called bin Sulayem “one of my most trusted friends in very sense of the word,” and added that “I greatly appreciate the time we spend together.”
“Thank you my friend I am off the sample a fresh 100% female Russian at my yacht,” Bin Sulaymen replied to Epstein.
Documents indicate the relationship between the men dates back to the early 2000s and involved consulting each other for business input and arranging meetings with influential people, including former Israeli prime minister Ehud Barak, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor (formerly Prince Andrew), and investor Tom Barrack, who is now the ambassador to Turkey.

Other email correspondence shows the men discussing different masseuses and a possible visit to Epstein’s island. One exchange shows bin Sulaymen helping to arrange for one of Epstein’s masseuses to be trained at a luxury hotel in Turkey, for “better experiences.”
In one email to bin Sulayem from a redacted sender, the sender wrote “Jeffrey is wondering what time you would like your massage today in new york.” Epstein offered to take him to his island after an event he referred to as “the Clinton Forum.” Bin Sulaymen asked Epstein about Sept. 15-20, 2005, and that year, the annual Clinton Global Initiative took place from Sept. 15-17.
In a speech on the House floor Tuesday, Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna read the names of six “wealthy, powerful men” that the Justice Department had initially redacted in its most recent release of Epstein-related files. One of them was bin Sulaymen. The redactions have since been removed and all six names revealed.
The files referenced by Khanna and reviewed by CBS News do not appear to directly implicate the six men in any crimes, and Khanna did not allege any specific criminal wrongdoing.
When previously contacted about the communications between Epstein and bin Sulayem, DP World declined to comment.
