French prosecutors have opened an investigation into TotalEnergies for possible involuntary manslaughter for failing to protect subcontractors during a deadly attack.
French prosecutors have opened an investigation into supermajor TotalEnergies for possible involuntary manslaughter for failing to protect its subcontractors during a deadly attack in Mozambique close to a planned LNG project. TotalEnergies holds a 26.5% stake in the Mozambique LNG project, which was put on hold in 2021 following Islamist militant attacks in towns close to the site.
A spokesperson for TotalEnergies told French news agency AFP on Saturday that the energy major reiterates a previous statement and “firmly rejects the accusations.” TotalEnergies’ teams in Mozambique provided emergency aid and helped evacuate 2,500 people from the LNG facility under construction, including civilians, staff, contractors, and subcontractors, the company’s spokesperson told AFP.
