 In January 2010, "The Guardian" reported that solicitors Leigh Day, working for the victims of toxic poisoning, had been ordered by a Côte d'Ivoire court to transfer victim's compensation to a "shadowy local organisation", using the account of Claude Gouhourou, a "community representative".Martyn Day, a partner in the firm, feared that the cash would not reach the victims.Shortly after it became apparent that the toxic slops from the "Probo Koala" had led to the outbreak of sickness, two Trafigura executives, Claude Dauphin and Jean-Pierre Valentini, travelled to Abidjan.
