I find it interesting that the ICC agreed to yet another delay, particularly since Jin Cheng's reasoning for a delay is not related to this part of the hearing. This part of the hearing is about the ICC's jurisdiction to arbitrate at a later hearing on the wider issue of Zijin Mining's illegal acquisition of 15% of Dathcom.
Anyway, it is what it is, and here is a brief summary of the IGF's allegations against Jin Chen:
The IGF report (2022) into corruption in the DRC mining sector identified several allegations against Zijin Mining and Jin Cheng Mining. The report alleges that the companies engaged in corrupt practices, including bribery, to secure mining rights in the DRC . The report also alleges that the companies violated environmental regulations and human rights standards . Specifically, the report alleges that Zijin Mining bribed Congolese officials to secure mining rights in the DRC, and that Jin Cheng Mining used child labor in its mining operations.
This report is already in the president's hands, so good luck getting it amended you rodents.
