Lincoln fucked up when he failed to send the black animals back to Africa.

The African envoy accused of raping a neighbor in their Upper
Manhattan building and then dodging charges thanks to diplomatic
immunity may have fled the US.

No sounds came from inside Charles Dickens Imene Oliha�s
apartment Tuesday when The Post repeatedly knocked, and there
was no light visible from behind a red curtain fluttering in a
window.

The State Department wouldn�t say if Oliha, 46, left the country
or if the US government was seeking to have his immunity
revoked, with a rep saying, �We do not comment on the specifics
of ongoing investigations.

�We are aware of the incident referenced involving a diplomat
accredited to the United Nations,� the representative said in an
e-mail.

�We take these allegations seriously, and we are working closely
with the New York Police Department and the Mayor�s Office of
International Affairs, as we do in all legal and criminal cases
involving foreign diplomats assigned to Permanent Missions and
Observer Offices at the UN.�

An NYPD spokesman said, �It�s a situation where the State
Department is going to have to decide what they are going to do
with the case.

�It�s still under investigation at this point,� the spokesman
added.

�Whenever there�s a sexual assault like this, it�s horrible. As
a law-enforcement agency, we have done all that we can do at
this point.�

In a prepared statement, City Hall said, �Sexual assault of any
kind should never be tolerated.

�There is an active investigation underway. Depending on the
results, we will take all appropriate actions.�

Oliha was accused of twice raping a 24-year-old woman � once
with a condom and once without � after following her from the
lobby of their building on Wadsworth Terrace and forcing his way
into her apartment around noon Sunday.

It doesn�t appear that they knew each other, police said.

The woman allegedly told cops she was in shock afterward and
fell asleep, with a friend later convincing her to call 911. She
called 911 around 9:30 p.m., and cops took Oliha into custody
for questioning around 10:45 p.m., law-enforcement sources said
Tuesday.

The woman was taken to Columbia University Irving Medical
Center, where a rape kit was performed, sources said.

But Oliha was cut loose without any charges early Monday after
detectives confirmed he enjoyed diplomatic immunity because of
his job with South Sudan�s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and
International Cooperation, the NYPD said.

It�s unclear if the NYPD obtained a sample of his DNA before he
was freed.

After Oliha�s release, two women answered the door to his
apartment Monday but declined to comment amid the sounds of
young children in the background.

One woman, who wore a Puerto Rican flag mask, later identified
herself as a neighbor.

Other neighbors told The Post on Tuesday that Oliha was married
and raising four kids, including a newborn.

One neighbor said Oliha �was under immense stress� from his job
and began drinking so heavily that he repeatedly passed out on
the sidewalk before he suddenly stopped about three weeks ago.

�There was something happening with his government. There was
turmoil within their office at the UN,� the neighbor said.

�In the early days of summer, he would drink outside and fall
asleep on the sidewalk.�

The neighbor added: �I got to know him over those months of
turmoil when he was clearly troubled.

�He was going through some s�t, and drinking is what he did.�

A Spanish-speaking man who was drinking outside Oliha�s building
Tuesday afternoon said he�d seen the disgraced diplomat down as
much as a six-pack of Coors Light.

A worker at the Terrace Grocery next door said Oliha was a
regular customer who bought two or three cans of Heineken,
usually daily.

�He was a nice customer, my No. 1 customer,� the worker said.

�He was calm.�

A representative of the Permanent Mission of the Republic of
South Sudan to the UN did not return a request for comment from
The Post on Tuesday.
