A U.S. jury ordered the French bank BNP Paribas to pay $20 million to three Sudanese-American plaintiffs for its complicity in atrocities committed under former President Omar al-Bashir. The bank was accused of providing the regime with access to U.S. dollars used to purchase weapons for a campaign of destruction between 2002 and 2008. This ruling potentially opens the door for 20,000 other Sudanese refugees to seek billions in compensation.
