Dozens of Colombians have filed a class-action lawsuit against fruit giant Chiquita Brands International for its role in financing a right-wing paramilitary group in the 1990s. In 2007, Chiquita admitted to paying millions of dollars to the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia, known as the AUC. Some of the plaintiffs allege they were injured or had family members killed as a result of Chiquita’s support for the group.
