French Scientology guilty of fraud

Published: 28 October 2009 y., Wednesday

A Paris court has found the Church of Scientology guilty of fraud and fined it 600,000 euros - that's just over 900,000 dollars. Four church leaders in France were also given suspended prison sentences.

 

The case was brought by two former members, one seen here on the left, who said they were persuaded to spend more than 100,000 dollars on a range of items.
