Del Monte, a multinational fruit company, is facing allegations that its security guards in Kenya ran over and injured two teenagers at a pineapple farm.
The Bureau of Investigative Journalism reported that the victims were knocked off their motorbikes following a 15-minute pursuit by Del Monte guards driving four-wheel drive vehicles.
This incident follows previous reports by the same organization in June, which revealed that six people had been killed by guards over the past decade, with some of the victims accused of stealing pineapples from the farm.
In response to these allegations, Del Monte, a major supplier to supermarkets worldwide, has stated that it takes the accusations seriously and is conducting its own investigations into the matter.
