Laporte-Altrad trial: “What is the harm?”… The president of Montpellier defends himself from any influence peddling with the boss of French rugby

The same case, the same court, the same long-term hearings, but with a slight change of style. After three days and ten hours at the helm for Bernard Laporte, it was the turn of his co-defendant Mohed Altrad to appear this Tuesday before the 32nd correctional chamber of the Paris court. Like the president of the French Rugby Federation (FFR), the businessman and president of Montpellier Hérault Rugby (MHR) must answer in particular for accusations of corruption and influence peddling.
