Ecuador: Landmark rulings expected on several historic cases of exploitation | DW News

Landmark rulings are expected this week on several historic cases of exploitation in Ecuador. Agricultural workers say they’ve suffered decades of abuse on plantations, producing plant fiber for the Japanese company Furukawa. Now the courts are set to decide on criminal sanctions and reparations. DW’s Latin America Correspondent Nicole Ris reports.

For more on this, we talk to Joanna Ewart-James. She is co-founder of Freedom United, an organization dedicated to ending human trafficking and slavery and chair of the board of the Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative.

We also speak with Francisco Hurtado, who volunteered for a committee representing many of the victims.

And we talk to Fernanda Hopenhaym Cabrera. She is the vice-chair of the UN working group on business and human rights and is following the case closely.
