Maxkamad London ku taal ayaa ku xukuntay Glencore UK inuu bixiyo $310m oo lagu soo eedeeyay laaluush
Koox British ah oo ka tirsan kooxda Macdanta iyo ganacsiga ee Swiss-ka ee Glencore ayaa maxkamad ku taal London ku xukuntay in ay bixiso ganaax dhan 276.4 milyan ginni ($310.6m) todobo dambi oo laaluush ah oo la xidhiidha hawlaheeda shidaalka ee Afrika.
Glencore Energy UK Limited ayaa Khamiistii lagu xukumay inay bixiso 182.9 milyan ginni ($205.5m) ganaax ah garsoore Peter Fraser oo ka tirsan maxkamadda Southwark Crown Court, kaasoo sidoo kale ansixiyay 93.5 milyan gini ($105m)
Garsooraha ayaa sheegay in dambiyada uu Glencore ku qirtay dambiga ay ka dhigan yihiin “musuqmaasuqa shirkadaha ee baaxadda weyn, oo la geeyay lacago aad u badan oo laaluush ah”.
“Musuqmaasuqu waa muddo dheer, wuxuuna ka dhacay shan waddan oo kala duwan oo Galbeedka Afrika ah, laakiin asalkiisu wuxuu ka yimid miiska ganacsiga saliidda ee Galbeedka Afrika ee eedaysanaha ee London. Waxay ahayd mid ku baahsan ganacsatada miiskaas gaarka ah,” ayuu yidhi
Arbacadii, Xafiiska Qareenada Daran ee Britain (SFO) ayaa maxkamadda u sheegay in Glencore Energy UK Limited ay bixisay – ama ay ku guuldareysatay inay ka hortagto bixinta – malaayiin doolar oo laaluush ah oo la siiyay mas’uuliyiinta shanta waddan ee Afrika.
Aljazeera’s Rory Challands, oo ka soo waramaya meel ka baxsan Southwark Crown Court, ayaa sheegay in kiiska ka dhanka ah kooxda la bilaabay 2019 oo ay qiratay dambiga bishii June ee sanadkan.
“Laaluushku wuxuu ahaa hannaan dhowr sano ka socday Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Ivory Coast, Nigeria iyo South Sudan,” ayuu yidhi.
“Qaar ka mid ah tafaasiisha xiisaha badan ee la maqlay labadii maalmood ee u dambeeyay ee maxkamadda ayaa ahaa in Glencore uu siiyay dillaaliin si ay lacag caddaan ah ugu safraan Afrika diyaarado gaar ah, iyaga oo ka qaadaya waddan ilaa waddan si ay u laaluushaan saraakiisha.
Waan ka xunahay waxyeelada’ Glencore, oo ah shirkad caalami ah oo fadhigeedu yahay Switzerland, ayaa sheegay bishii May inay rajaynayso inay bixiso ilaa $1.5bn oo la xidhiidha eedaymaha laaluushka iyo wax isdaba marinta suuqyada ee Maraykanka, Brazil iyo Boqortooyada Ingiriiska. Clare Montgomery, oo matalaysa Glencore, ayaa tidhi:
“Shirkaddu waxay si aan kala go’ lahayn uga qoomamaynaysaa waxyeelada ay geysteen dembiyadan waxayna aqoonsanaysaa waxyeelada ay geysteen, labadaba heer qaran iyo heer dawladeed ee dawladaha Afrikaanka ah ee ay khusayso, iyo sidoo kale waxyeelada loo geystay kuwa kale.”
