Newly crowned Miss Universe 2011 Leila Lopes's reign could end in disgrace in just a few hours after apparent fraud allegations have emerged. According to Argentine daily Infobae and other Angolan media outlets, the organizer of the the pageant that crowned her Miss Angola in her home country, a man by the name of Charles Mukano, apparently falsified the beauty's documentation so that she could participate in the prestigious event. The Infobae report goes on to say that Mukano helped Lopes reach the Miss Angola UK pageant, in which only Angolan women who live in Great Britain participate, in spite of the fact that Lopes presumably lived in Angola. The report also says that Mukano allegedly obtained false documentation that said Lopes is a business administration student in Great Britain. Infobae's report also said that in 2009, Mukano was questioned about false documents he obtained after a Cape Verde citizen came close to winning Miss Angola. So far, neither Leila Lopes, Charles Mukano or the Miss Universe Organization has made a statement about the allegations. However, an unofficial source within mogul Donald Trump's Miss Universe Organization has said assured that, along with their lawyers, they would be investigating the case and would ultimately arrange a news conference to announce whether Lopes would keep her Miss Universe 2011 crown.
