Colombia: NGOs express concern over killing of opponent of Drummond’s coal project; includes statement by Drummond

Last 11th of September, Néstor Martínez, an Afro Colombian leader allegedly opposed to Drummond’s operations was killed by armed people.  By condemning the event, the Dutch NGO Pax for peace issued a public statement in their English website; previously, they had produced a report on attacks against human rights activists.  Drummond responds to it asking this NGO to rectify their accusations against the company. A previous response by Prodeco [part of Glencore] is available too.
