The firm FAVREL Avocat is proud to have won a case before the Versailles judicial court in favour of a Kenyan whistleblower who had been summoned for defamation, following tweets denouncing corruption in Kenya.<\/p>

The court rejected all the plaintiff’s claims on the grounds that there was no manifestly unlawful disturbance,  and ordered the author of the summons to pay 5,000 euros under article 700.<\/p>

Such cases illustrate the need for more robust legislation for proceedings initiated for the sole purpose of distorting public debate. We eagerly await the transposition of the directive against gag proceedings.<\/p>
