In my contribution today on our cooperative blog – Les 5 du Vin – I call for the resignations of Alain Gayda and Pierre Mirc, managing director and president respectively, of Sieur d'Arques. Although Gayda and Mirc both protested their innocence of the fraud, the court judgment identifies them, especially Gayda, as amongst the principals in the fraud.
Although the oenologue who told the truth to the police has lost her job at Sieur d'Arques, Gayda and Mirc both remain in post despite the court's damning verdict. Nowadays it is clear that nobody resigns even when involved in a 7 million € fraud.
See on Les 5 du Vin heads must roll!
