Brazil to charge Chevron executives over fresh oil leak
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-17419404Brazilian prosecutors say they will bring criminal charges against 17 executives from the US oil company Chevron and drilling contractor Transocean after a new leak of crude.
The executives have been barred from leaving the country until the investigation concludes.
Chevron halted production in Brazil after the new oil leak was found on the seabed off Brazil earlier this week.
The seepage is near a well where there was a major oil spill last November.
