"Vinci in Qatar: court confirms indictment for forced labor," 5 July 2024

...[T]he investigating chamber confirmed the indictment of Vinci Construction Grands Projets in the forced labor case on its construction sites in Qatar...

The multinational argued that its indictment should be quashed on the grounds of an alleged excess of powers on the part of the examining magistrate, and the absence of serious or concordant clues that it may have committed these offences...
