Rape accusation dismissed: a former senior executive of the CGT suffers a setback in his judicial counter-offensive

Benjamin Amar, a former CGT executive, faced a judicial setback as the Paris Court of Appeal dismissed part of his privacy claims. Initially victorious in a lower court, the appeal reduced the penalties against one of the defendants. Amar, a history and geography teacher, is a prominent figure in the CGT and has faced serious allegations, including sexual assault, leading to his suspension and eventual exclusion from the executive committee after an internal investigation.
