The Sueddeutsche Zeitung paper and public broadcaster NDR on Sunday reported that Brazil is investigating alleged human rights violations at the farm during 1974-1986 when the military dictatorship was in power in Brazil.
NDR reported that Brazil’s military government made an offer to VW to buy and develop the land.
“Please understand that we are not commenting further due to possible legal proceedings in Brazil,” VW said.
