Four victims of Shell's oil leaks in Nigeria are taking the company to court in the Netherlands - where the firm is headquatered. The plaintifs are farmers and fishers, who lost their livelihoods when oil leaked from Shell pipelines onto their fields and into their ponds. They are claiming compensation and also want Shell to clean up the oil which remains in the ground, so that they can fish and farm once again.
