The European Commission has announced its revival of an ongoing investigation into alleged breaches of European antitrust law, first launched in May 2011. Commission chief Herbert de Broca acknowledged a slowdown in the investigation since it began, but reassured that the silence until now did not equate to inactivity. The investigation began more than a year ago into twelve container carriers, though details remain unclear as to what evidence the European Commission has found against them.
