Trafigura and their lawyers Carter Ruck had been pursuing an ongoing libel case against the BBC over a news story that aired in May 2009. Until this week the story was still available on the BBC website. The link stopped working some time on December 10th or 11th. Trafigura and Carter Ruck have become notorious for their willingness to use the UK's repressive media laws to suppress legitimate criticism and comment.

Thank you very much for uploading this. The first time I've had a chance to see it.

The board of Trifigura should be brought to book and made to pay for the clean up of every piece of contamination, on top of fines for every illegal act they committed, not to mention a corporate manslaughter and reckless endangerment.

Take a look at 0:55. Erich de Turckheim claims that "slops they were carrying were absolutely not dangerous to human beings" and then he looks away and smiles for a moment. I wonder what funny idea crossed his pathetic mind.

This should not be an issue of "corporate responsibility" but criminal responsibility of individual human beings who make informed decisions to injure or kill others for their own profit.

find out who they deal with, and boycott those companies. one thing about corporations they will throw each other under the bus without hesitation. greed is their motivation, they are predictable.
