In those instances, it was established that several witnesses who testified against the company received financial compensation for their testimony. This led a federal judge in the United States to find probable cause that Terry Collingsworth, the attorney who filed the lawsuits against Drummond, participated in the bribery and perjury of witnesses.<\/li><li>The same evidence confirms the inexistence of responsibility of those allegedly linked, since the prosecution witnesses failed to be truthful in their testimonies in exchange for financial remuneration.<\/li><li>Drummond Ltd. and its executives will continue to cooperate fully with the authorities, as they have done in the past.<\/li><li>Since the beginning of its operations in Colombia, at the end of the 80s, the company has adhered to the laws that govern the country, and has adopted the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights, as well as the Guiding Principles on the United Nations on Human Rights and Business.<\/li><li>Reiteramos que Drummond Ltd. y sus ejecutivos no tienen ni han tenido v\u00ednculo alguno con organizaciones al margen de la ley.<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Information issued by the media on an accusation by the Attorney General\u2019s Office against some of its directors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8518","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-press-releases"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
