A view is seen on April 13, 2012 of SNC-Lavalin's headquarters in Montreal, Quebec. Police on Friday raided the headquarters of a Canadian engineering firm with dealings in Moamer Kadhafi's Libya and loosely linked to a failed plot to smuggle the ex-dictator's son into Mexico.The Royal Canadian Mounted Police executed a search warrant and the company is cooperating in the investigation, SNC-Lavalin said in a statement. 'The warrant relates to an investigation of certain individuals who are not or are no longer employed by the company,' it added. An AFP correspondent at the scene said all access to the building at Rene Levesque Boulevard West in downtown Montreal, which also houses a US consulate, was blocked. SNC-Lavalin last month fired its chief executive, Pierre Duhaime, after his 23 years with the company, amid accusations he allowed $56 million in payments to foreign agents for undocumented work.

La firme d'ingénieurs SNC-Lavalin a annoncé jeudi avoir vendu son siège social montréalais et un terrain vacant adjacent pour environ 170 millions $.

L'entente de cession-bail conclue avec Conseillers immobiliers GWL pour le compte de clients institutionnels permet à SNC de louer l'immeuble de 21 étages pendant 20 ans.

L'immeuble du centre-ville montréalais, sis boulevard René-Lévesque Ouest, fait l'objet d'"importantes rénovations" qui visent à moderniser ses espaces de travail.

SNC-Lavalin (TSX:SNC) avait indiqué en novembre qu'elle cherchait à réduire ses coûts en vendant son siège social et en regroupant ses activités dans un moins grand nombre d'immeubles.

Le chef de la direction de SNC, Neil Bruce, a répété jeudi, dans un communiqué, que SNC avait l'intention de conserver son siège social dans la métropole québécoise "pour les années à venir".
