Description
Gael Bodenes, the head of French shipping company Bourbon, which specialises in maritime assistance to the offshore oil sector, has been given a suspended two-year prison sentence and banned from managing a company for three years for bribery of tax officials in three African countries. "The court put a lot of things into perspective (...) but as a matter of principle, I disagree with the sentence and am therefore appealing this decision," explained his lawyer Patrick Maisonneuve.
