PARIS,(UPI) -- The Church of Scientology in France is facing organized fraud charges for allegedly manipulating others for financial gain, authorities said.
Jean-Christophe Hullin, the investigating magistrate in the fraud case, alleges the church's bookshop and headquarters in Paris, along with seven senior church members, manipulated vulnerable people for profit, The Guardian (Britain) reported Monday.
In France, Scientology is viewed as a sect and not a recognized religion as it is in other parts of the world. The legal case against the Scientology sect could potentially result in its dissolution in France, the Guardian reported. More audio news from RadioFranceInt [in english]
