Summary
"In 2019 Johannes Stefansson blew the whistle on the corrupt operations of his former employer, Icelandic fishing company Samherji, then working in Namibian waters. His revelations unveiled the collusion between Samherji and Namibian business and political elites. What became known as the 'Fishrot Files' were published through a collaboration between The Namibian, WikiLeaks, The Icelandic Broadcasting Service, RUV and the Icelandic newspaper Stundin."--Publisher's description.
