Criminal acts of the Nestlé group
Two children died since the beginning of the year. One of the two is from the Ile-de-France region. Master Debuissonlawyer for the parents of the young victim, explains that ” this family found itself faced with an incredible and abominable dilemma. Their eight-year-old son was found brain dead. doctors had to ask parents to choose when to disconnect their child“.
For the lawyer, this drama could have been avoided “if Nestlé had not behaved in total and absolute negligence.” He also mentions “criminal acts of the Nestlé group“.
Complaints for “unintentional injuries”
Maître Pierre Debuisson, is also the lawyer forabout forty other families of poisoned children by Buitoni’s Fraîch’Up pizzas. If several families have filed a complaint against Buitoni, all intend to do so for “unintentional injuries”.
