K+S Group reported June 7 that the Kassel public prosecutor’s office has discontinued the investigative proceedings pending since December 2015 in relation to persons responsible at K+S KALI GmbH in connection with attempted water pollution. The office found there were insufficient grounds for suspecting the commission of a criminal offense.
It was initially alleged that the company had manipulated documents in connection with the application filed by it in April 2015 for continuing its injection practices.
