Eighteen families of residents of retirement homes filed a complaint against X, especially for “manslaughter”. The French group declares to ignore their content and “therefore cannot make any comments”.
Thirty complaints aimed at the Korian group’s EHPAD were filed in front of a dozen prosecution in several regions, said on Tuesday, June 7, at the France-Presse (AFP) agency, the lawyer Sarah Saldmann, confirming a Information of Parisian .
These complaints against X come from eighteen families of residents, for acts of “endangering the life of others”, “non-assistance to people in danger” and “manslaughter”. They were deposited in Aix-en-Provence, Bobigny, Bourges, Le Mans, Marseille, Nantes, Niort, Paris, Pau and Versailles, detailed M e Saldmann.
Almost 80 complaints against Orpea
Korian reacted quickly, saying in a statement that the lawyer had “attached to any time to formalize the complaints of his customers and thus assert their interests”. The group “ignores everything about the content of these complaints and cannot therefore make any comments”, and recalls that “all the serious situations brought to [its] knowledge are processed and systematically declared to the authorities”.
M e Saldmann was already at the origin of nearly 80 complaints filed in April in Nanterre against the Orpea group for similar facts, in the wake of the scandal triggered by the Book Inquiry Les Fossoyeurs , from journalist Victor Castanet. Most of these procedures – apart from those concerning clinea subsidiary clinics – are already “investigating,” she said.
