Fraud cops investigating ex-Glencore staff plan to press charges

British prosecutors investigating former Glencore employees over bribery allegations said they plan to bring long-awaited criminal charges. More than 18 months after first revealing that as many as 11 ex-staffers were under investigation, the Serious Fraud Office told a London judge on Monday that it had sought government approval to charge individuals. It’s the first time the agency has committed to press individual criminal convictions following Glencore’s own guilty plea in 2022.
