 The criminal court judge Bonneville in the Haute Savoie on Thursday that the case had caused a stir in 2008. The accident Planpraz gondola in Chamonix. A holidaymaker had a fatal fall in heckling in the gondola. was three years ago, in March 2008. Antoine Laurent, 32, spends his holidays in Chamonix with friends. That day, they have many drunk and started heckling the gondola Planpraz. The glass gives way, Antoine Laurent made a fatal fall from several meters. Since then, the company that manages the Mont Blanc the three ski areas in Chamonix is at the heart of a court battle. At issue: the lack of information. Apparently, users were unaware that there was a danger not to be quiet in the cabin. The company defends itself by saying that it is a rare occurrence, it would have happened if there had been no shock. She will plead the acquittal in court Bonneville. The Compagnie du Mont Blanc view there is no fault, the accident was caused by an abnormal behavior of users. It still incurs a maximum penalty of 225,000 euros. Since the accident, the signage has changed in the gondola. She now says that the glass is not an element of safety but comfort. |
