Amnesty and Greenpeace call for UK criminal investigation into Trafigura | Ekklesia

Amnesty and Greenpeace call for UK criminal investigation into Trafigura | Ekklesia: Trafigura, the multinational company behind the 2006 dumping of toxic waste in Abidjan, C�te d’Ivoire, resulting in over 100,000 people seeking medical assistance, must be criminally investigated in the UK, Amnesty International and Greenpeace International conclude in a major new report released on 21 September.
The Toxic Truth is the result of a three-year investigation and provides an in-depth examination of the tragic litany of failures that created a medical, political and environmental disaster. It details how existing laws aimed to prevent such tragedies were flouted, with several governments failing to halt the progress of the Probo Koala and its toxic cargo towards Abidjan.
