Singapore-based Interra Resources denies allegations that it’s ‘fuelling war crimes’ in Myanmar by supplying oil
Stock has been suspended since Feb 6 as company seeks legal advice
OIL and gas exploration and production company Interra Resources on Thursday (Feb 6) denied a report that alleged it has supplied the Myanmar junta with more than two million barrels of oil since the military’s “illegal coup attempt”.
It refuted a few allegations that were made, including the signing of contracts with the junta and controlling how the oil is distributed.
Interra was responding to questions from the Singapore Exchange (SGX) on matters pertaining to its operations in Myanmar, which came after activist group Justice for Myanmar published an article alleging that the company was “fuelling the country’s ongoing war crimes and crimes against humanity” by supplying the junta with oil.
