Petroperu rejected the participation of a manager or senior officials of the company in the tax investigation of an alleged criminal organization dedicated to committing attacks against the North Peruvian Oil Pipeline (ONP).
The state oil company said that, among the eighteen people included in the investigation, the authorities have identified two Petroperú workers, one being a pipeline area supervisor and the other community relations coordinator.
“Consequently, we deny that managers or senior company officials are involved in this process,” he said in a statement.
In this sense, the company reiterated its recognition of the actions carried out by the Public Ministry to identify, collect evidence and file charges against those responsible for these serious criminal acts.
Along these lines, Petroperú stated that it had collaborated with the investigation since its beginning and announced that it “will continue to support all efforts to find and punish those responsible” for the attacks.
“Petroperú reiterates its firm commitment to continue contributing to the development of the Amazon and the country, with a safe operation of the North Peruvian Oil Pipeline, a National Critical Asset, which must be protected by all Peruvians,” the state company signed.
