France launches involuntary homicide investigation against Totalgies

France launches involuntary homicide investigation against Totalgies

In October 2023, the survivors and relatives of the victims of the attack near an important gas field in northern Mozambique had launched legal actions against major oil, accusing it of not protecting their subcontractors.

Militants linked to the Islamic State killed dozens of people when they attacked the port city of Palma de Mozambiqueña in March 2021, sending thousands of people fleeing to the surrounding forest.

The attack in the province of Cabo Delgado lasted several days. Some of the victims were beheaded.

On Friday, investigation into involuntary homicide and lack of help to a person in danger was launched, said Nanterre prosecutor’s office to the AFP.

There was no immediate reaction of total energy.
