NETHERLANDS-ICOAST-ENVIRONMENT-POLLUTION-VERDICT
Judge Frans Bauduin (L) speaks in the courtroom in Amsterdam on July 23, 2010. The court slapped a one-million-euro (1.3-million-dollar) fine on a Swiss-based company whose chartered ship dumped waste alleged by Ivory Coast to have killed 17 people. "The court sentences Trafigura to a fine of one million euros," presiding judge Frans Bauduin said in the Amsterdam district court, finding the company guilty of breaking European waste export laws. It was also found guilty of concealing what the charge sheet referred to as the "harmful nature" of the waste on board the Probo Koala ship that arrived at the port of Amsterdam in July 2006, but was redirected to the Ivory Coast.
