Four people, suspected of money laundering and fraud at Emmaüs 82, were referred before a summons by official report. They will therefore be tried before the criminal court.
During their police custody, two directors of Emmaüs 82 and their wives were questioned in the premises of the Castelsarrasin research brigade (Tarn-et-Garonne). They are accused of money laundering and fraud. The deputy prosecutor in charge of the case notified them of their referral for a summons by report (CCPV), according to information from our colleagues from the Dépêche du Midi. They will be tried in the criminal court.
The defendants had the choice of answering questions or remaining silent. The CCPV is a procedure which makes it possible to judge within a maximum period of 6 months after police custody, without the need for an instruction.
At the request of the Deputy Prosecutor, a liberty and detention judge will decide placement under judicial supervision, or house arrest with electronic monitoring, pending trial.
These hearings and summonses follow an investigation by the Castelsarrasin research brigade into the disappearance of nearly 60,000 of the accounts of the Emmaüs 82 association. It was an accountant who reported this anomaly. two years ago, and had made a report to the public prosecutor of Montauban.
Gérard Gineste, the president of the association, out of the question because he arrived at the time when this hole in the accounts already existed, had filed a complaint for breach of trust against X.
