Dozens of people living close to the Tata Steel plant in IJmuiden are taking legal action against the company for deliberately damaging their health, the NoordHollands Dagblad reported on Friday.
High profile lawyer Bénédicte Ficq is representing the local residents and a number of foundations in the case, and says that the factory has been dumping dangerous chemicals into the ‘air and soil of a densely populated area’.
