Last week, Sweden indicted two oil executives<\/a> from Swedish oil company Lundin Energy<\/strong> for aiding and abetting war crimes in South Sudan between 1999 and 2003. If the trial<\/a> starts next year as expected, it will be a very important move in the area of corporate responsibility<\/a>. To know more, our partners from Asymmetrical Haircuts invited Egbert Wesslink<\/strong>, one of the authors of a 2010 report by Dutch NGO Pax for Peace, entitled\u00a0\u201cUnpaid debt\u201d. To get control of an oil area, Lundin Energy paid government forces and militias who committed war crimes, the report says. With its massive legal team, the oil company has done everything to stop this indictment, in what has become \u201cthe largest criminal investigation in Swedish history\u201d, says Wesslink.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
