ICOAST-POLLUTION-ENVIRONMENT-JUSTICE
A woman holds up a sign next to a woman whose face is disfigured, which she says is due to the dumping of toxic waste in August 2006 in various quarters of Abidjan, on September 29, 2008 in Abidjan. The trial of 12 people charged with involvement in the 2006 toxic waste pollution scandal in the Ivory Coast is set to go ahead on September 29, according to court documents. The 12 are charged with "poisoning or complicity to poison" in the illicit dumping of 500 tonnes of caustic soda and petroleum residues across more than a dozen open-air rubbish tips around the commercial capital Abidjan. The placard reads, in part: "Finavidet Avdt [an organisation for victims] ... danger Vridi 3 [a quarter of Abidjan]". AFP PHOTO / ISSOUF SANOGO
