An Anglo-French oil company is poised to send more than 1,000 workers into a remote part of the Peruvian Amazon inhabited by uncontacted indigenous tribes. The company, Perenco, has just been given the go-ahead from the Peruvian government...Perenco denies the existence of uncontacted tribes in the area, despite confirmation of their existence by Peru's government, Ecuador’s government, the company that used to work in the area (Barrett Resources), and Peru's indigenous organizations...Peru's Amazonian indigenous organization, AIDESEP...has appealed to...the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, urging it to help prevent Perenco working in the region...Contact between [Perenco's workers] and uncontacted Indians could end in violent conflict or the decimation of the Indians by disease.
